Probe usage and care:
The probe has two flat electrodes with known surface
areas and distance between them. A signal is supplied
to the electrodes and by testing the signal behavior,
the salinity of the solution is calculated.
General care:
Avoid touching the probes flat green surface if
possible.
Never submerge the probe’s or sensor’s plastic
body in any liquid.
Gently rinse the electrodes off with distilled water
after each use and between samples to avoid
damage and contamination.
Handle and store with care to avoid damaging or
chipping the electrodes.
Quick start procedure:
PC or Mac Computer
Materials needed:
900-238 Salinity Sensor
900-213 USB Module
USB to mini USB cable (included with the 900-
213 module)
Your salinity sensor needs to be connected to a 900-
213 module. The 900-213 module then connects to a
computer via a USB to mini-USB cable. Please note
that you cannot plug the salinity sensor directly into
the computer.
