EC Sensor Calibration Equations

Hi,

maybe you can give me an explanation. It would be very helpful. I've bought the Analog electrical conductivity sensor.
I want to calibrate my EC Probe with the code from the wiki and the Sheme of calibration.

My question is now, how are the three equations are calculated out?
Do I need to change the equations with the results of my calibration progress?
And how can I do this?

What are those Values in this three equations? Like 6.84 or 64.32?

It would be nice, when i could get an answer how this is calculated out.
Code: Select all
if(CoefficientVolatge<=448)ECcurrent=6.84*CoefficientVolatge-64.32;   //1ms/cm<EC<=3ms/cm
      else if(CoefficientVolatge<=1457)ECcurrent=6.98*CoefficientVolatge-127;  //3ms/cm<EC<=10ms/cm
      else ECcurrent=5.3*CoefficientVolatge+2278;                           //10ms/cm<EC<20ms/cm

Thanks for your help in advance.
