The conductivity/temperature sensor can measure and calculate conductivity, specific conductance (temperature compensated
conductivity), salinity, non-linear function (nLF) conductivity, TDS, resistivity, and density. Calibration is only available for specific
conductance, conductivity, and salinity. Calibrating one of these options automatically calibrates the other conductivity/temperature
parameters listed above. For both ease of use and accuracy, YSI recommends calibrating specific conductance.
