3.4 Conductivity Electrode Information
The CON 6/TDS 6 hand-held meter is supplied with a
conductivity/TDS electrode with a BNC connector. This
conductivity/TDS electrode (Order Part Number: EC-
CONSEN91B/ 35606-55) comes with Stainless Steel rings,
cell constant of K = 1.0, and a built-in temperature sensor for
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC). Its specially
designed Ultem-body housing has good chemical resistant
properties. It provides fast temperature response and
reduces air entrapment, which makes it easy to obtain
accurate, stable readings.
The probe materials used which have good chemical
durability include:
1.
Polyetherimide (Ultem) – protective probe guard
2. Polybutylterphalate (Valox) – sensor housing
3. Stainless Steel (SS 304) – 2 steel bands
Proper use of probe is essential to ensure that the optimum
measurement is taken in a short time.
The removable protective plastic probe guard is meant for
simple periodic maintenance and it must be kept intact
during measurement and calibration.
Always immerse the probe beyond upper steel band.
