5 Calibration with SIMATIC PDM Volume 5
5.4 One-Point Calibration
One-point calibration is used if adjustment of the upper calibration
point is not possible and if complete absorption of the radiation by
a full tank is not expected. Prerequisite is that the isotope (Co-60
or Cs-137) has already been set up correctly (see page 5–494).
One-point calibration is carried out in five steps:
• Select operating mode one-point calibration
• Measure background
• Empty calibration
• Full calibration through automatic calculation using the tank
data.
• Check calibration
The necessary steps will be explained in detail on the following
pages and in the proper order. For more information on the individ-
ual functions please refer to section 8.
Select the operating mode for one-point calibration (see
page 5–496).
5.4.1 Measure Background
Determine the background as described on page 5–499.
5.4.2 Empty Calibration
Perform the empty calibration as described on page 5–500.
