CD1.1 Tools for Platinum

C=g

G

— CD1.1 calibration for acoustic sensor, where C

is the calibration value in °/count, g is the gain of an optional
auxiliary signal conditioner (use 1 if no conditioner is present),
S is the digitiser sensitivity in µV/count and G is the gain of the
instrument in V/°.

12.6 Temperature

For a temperature sensor with an output that is given either as
V/°C or V/K (VK

-1

), use:

C=g

S⋅10

6

G

— CD1.1 calibration for acoustic sensor, where C

is the calibration value in K/count, g is the gain of an optional
auxiliary signal conditioner (use 1 if no conditioner is present),
S is the digitiser sensitivity in µV/count and G is the gain of the
instrument in V/°C or V/K.

(NB: it does not matter whether the sensor response is
proportional to the Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K) scale as the
Celsius scale is merely a linear offset of the Kelvin scale, with a
scale factor of 1).
