Introduction 

Thank you for purchasing the Fisherbrand

 accumet

 

AB330 conductivity bench meter. The accumet AB300 
meters are designed to provide the important functions 
needed for routine measurements with simplified, 
convenient, easy-to-use functionality.  

The accumet AB330 conductivity meters are capable of 
measuring conductivity, salinity, TDS and temperature and 
offer a large, backlit display for clear viewing with small 
footprint to conserve laboratory bench space.  

Ensure important data is preserved with a 500-point data 
log with date/time stamp that can also be exported to a 
printer or computer using the meter communication port.  

All accumet AB330 conductivity meters include a meter-
attached electrode holder and universal 100-240V power 
adapter with wall plugs for US/Japan, Euro, UK/Singapore, 
Australia/New Zealand and China. Additional meter 
accessories can be viewed at
