1.2.5 Parameters
The following parameters are calculated:
Relative humidity in %RH (technical)
Relative humidity in % WMO* (calculation according to the WMO
standard)
Temperature °C and °F
Dewpoint or pressure dewpoint in °Ctd and °Ftd*
Absolute humidity in g/m³ and gr/ft³
Degree of humidity in g/kg and gr/lb
Enthalpy in kJ/kg and BTU/lb
Psychrometer temperature in °Ctw and °Ftw
Water vapour partial pressure in hPa and "H2O
Water content in ppmvol and % vol
Dewpoint of H2O2mixture in °Ctm and °Ftm.
*It is possible that condensation appears as early as a displayed
humidity starting from 70 % and is shown on the display.
1.2.6 Scaling
There are three types of min./max. values:
1 The measuring range
The maximum sensor performance is in this range. Values outside of
the measuring range are displayed via messages, for example.
Measuring range, see table (below).
2 Standard scaling
The output signals are assigned to this measuring range as standard:
- during delivery if no entries are made in the order code
- after exchanging the unit, the measuring range recorded in the
instrument is applied as standard.
The transmitter even retains its scaling with the voltage
disconnected.

16 testo 6682 - 1.2 Product description
3 The maximum settings for the manual scaling
- the values are not expressly given in the table. The maximum limits
can be calculated as follows:
X = difference between MIN. and MAX. value of the standard scaling
(Max. value of standard) + (50 % of X)
(Min. value of standard) - (50 % of X)
- It is thus possible to scale beyond the measuring range, e.g. for the
adjustment of the scaling limits to standard values of a PLC.

1.3.2 Connecting the instrument
Ex protection!
Each of the two channels of the testo 6682 must be provided
with a certified transmitter power supply unit that provides a
category ia circuit.
The technical data of the transmitter power supply unit must
not exceed the following Ex-relevant data:
U0= 28 V
I0= 93 mA
P0= 650 mW.
For correct operation, the terminal voltage at the transmitter
must not fall below 16 V with 20 mA loop current.
Opening the instrument
1. Loosen screw connections (1) of service flap and open the flap.

20 testo 6682 - 1.3 Commissioning
