Square-root approximation of the characteristic curve
If the filter characteristic curve is strongly curved, a more exact approximation
may be necessary. In this case, the Approximation parameter can be set
to the ‘Square-root' value.
The software then calculates a square root characteristic from the other para-
meters.

square root approximation

The ∆p correction value parameter can be used to set an offset for the
linear characteristic curve so that the deviation from the real filter characteristic
curve is minimized over the entire operating range.

With the parameters Displ.range C3 start and Displ.range C3
end the display characteristic curve can be spread appropriately. Since the
limit curve for the contaminated filter is now fixed, the degree of contamination
of the filter can be determined dynamically for any operating point.
