General information about conductivity measuring
During the measurement, the conductivity measuring cell must be dipped at least in so
far, that at least 30 mm beginning from the top of the measuring cell, is located in the
medium. The maximum immersion depth for continuous operation should not exceed
110 mm
The measuring cell can either be stored dry or in water. After dry storage wetting time
will be prolonged slightly. If changing over from one liquid to another with conductivities
varying widely make sure to properly rinse and shake dry measuring cell.
If conductivity measured is much higher or lower than expected this may be due to the
electrode being soiled with non-conducting or conducting foreign materials. Measuring
cell has to be cleaned with a watery soap solution. When measuring media with low
conductivities the electrode has to be stirred sufficiently.
NOTE
Measuring cell must never come into contact with water-repellent materials such as oil
or silicone.
