Portable conductivity meter

process

Method Conductivity (or Specific Conductance) is the measure of the electrical current carrying capacity of a solution. Ionized dissolved solids in water have the ability to conduct an electric current. The conductivity of pure water is very low and increases proportionally to the level of contamination present. Accurate conductivity measurement is extremely important in industrial water treatment applications, as it allows for the calculation of total dissolved solids in raw water, boiler water, condensate, and other process waters. Conductivity is also frequently tested for in environmental applications. Method of Operation To operate the CHEMetrics Conductivity Meter, switch unit on, remove the electrode cap, immerse the probe into the sample, making sure that the sensor is fully covered. Wait for the readings to stabilize (Automatic Temperature compensation corrects for temperature changes). Take measurement. To clean the probe, simply mix it in tap water.
