A schematic drawing of the electrode arrangement of the measuring cell is shown in Abbildung\u00a01. The measuring cell is constructed like a tubular capacitor and consists of an inner and an outer electrode, and is filled with the test substance.<\/p>\n<p>The measuring cell (see <strong>Figure 1<\/strong>) is placed in a thermostat from OMEGA. The relative permittivity can thus be measured in a temperature range from 20 \u00b0C to 180 \u00b0C. The temperature is set here with an accuracy of 0.03 K. Temperature curves can be measured directly using this method.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9733\" style=\"width: 824px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9733\" class=\"wp-image-9733 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/relative-permittivity-en.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"814\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/relative-permittivity-en.jpg 814w, https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/relative-permittivity-en-350x327.jpg 350w, https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/relative-permittivity-en-768x717.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 814px) 100vw, 814px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-9733\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Figure 1<\/strong>: Schematic structure of the electrode arrangement of the measuring cell to determine relative permittivity (Epsilon+ from flucon fluid control GmbH)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Based on the relative permittivity \u0190r and the conductivity of the liquids, the relaxation time in a conductive or dissipative container or plant component can be determined as defined in TRGS 727<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a> according to the following equation:<\/p>\n<p>\u01ac = \u0190<sub>0<\/sub> \u00b7 \u0190<sub>r<\/sub> \/ k<\/p>\n<p>The relative permittivity is also required to adjust or correct functioning of capacitive level probes, among other things.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> TRGS 727 Avoidance of ignition hazards due to electrostatic charges, January 2016[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner rt_row_style=&#8221;global-style&#8221;
