How long does automatic compensation last?

The degree of sensor aging has a significant impact on how long automatic compensation lasts:

After rigorous cleaning and turning on automatic compensation, it can sustain appropriate levels for one to two months if the divergence is solely due to material accumulation. This may even be maintained for up to six months by certain sensors that are not too old.

Automatic adjustment can only postpone drift for two to four weeks in cases of mild aging (the diaphragm is slightly eroded), after which the divergence would progressively beyond the permissible range.

Automatic adjustment will only last three to seven days at most in cases of extreme aging (the deviation still exceeds the standard after cleaning), and the deviation will soon surpass the standard once more.

After turning on automatic compensation, it is usually advised to retest the zero point every two days. Make plans for shutdown and replacement ahead of time if a sharp rise in deviation is found.
