5.1 Calibration Equations of Pressure Sensors
Calibration is performed for different pressure sensor locations in the channels for
converting data logger reading to equivalent depth at that pressure sensor locations. After calibration of pressure sensors, the following equations are obtained
for different pressure sensors.
Pressure sensor 105: Y = 0.969 X−25.17, Pressure sensor 106: Y = 1.24 X −
30.08
Pressure sensor 112: Y = 1.166 X−33.41, Pressure sensor 108: Y = 1.074 X −
28.82
Pressure sensor 110: Y = 1.126 X −26.97, Pressure sensor 111: Y = 1.061 X −
21.72.
