NEULOG CONDUCTIVITY FIELD SENSOR GUIDE
On the conductivity probe there are two electrodes of known surface area with a
known distance between them which allows for the sensor to determine the
conductivity of solutions. The electrodes located on the conductivity probe have an
electrical potential difference applied to them to generate a current through the
solution. If ions are present the current will flow between the electrodes. Current
flows through solutions via ion transport, therefore the higher number of ions present
in a solution the easier an electrical current can flow and a higher conductivity value
will be measured. The electrodes alternate polarities to prevent a total ion migration to
either pole which could cause polarization and electrolysis.
Maintenance and storage:
Never submerge the NeuLog plastic body in any liquid.
Do not allow liquid into either the sensor’s or probe’s plastic body.
After using the probe rinse with distilled water and then blot or let air dry.
Store in a box at room temperature out of direct sunlight.
Warranty:
We promise to deliver our sensor free of defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of 3 years from the date of purchase. Our warranty does not cover damage of
the product caused by improper use, abuse, or incorrect storage. Sensors with a shelf
life such as ion selective proves have a warranty of 1 year. Should you need to act
upon the warranty please contact your distributor. Your sensor will be repaired or
replaced.
Thank you for using NeuLog!
Flexible, simple, fast, forward thinking.
