6.24 Velocity of Sound Correction “The Velocity of Sound (VOS) in the process quid may have an effect onthe accuracy of the indicated density. The ‘caibraton of the 7835/45/46/47 sensors has been optimised to a densty/VOS relationship as indicated in Figure 67. Ifthe VOS of the process Mud deviates substantially from the rolaonship in Figure 6.7 it may be desirable to apply a ‘cortecton. This may be achieved by the simple intreduction of a calbation offset using the dala in Figure G7. Adjustrent (of the value KO in the basic quation wll achiove this.
