It boasts an accuracy of ± 0.5% and includes a temperature compensation mechanism using a Pt100 sensor, providing flexibility based on the application.

Choosing the Right Sensor for Your Needs

Conductivity measures a fluid’s ability to conduct electrical current. Ionized substances in solution influence this. When you choose a conductivity sensor, consider your project details. Ask yourself: Is the expected conductivity high or low? Will the temperature change? Where will you use the probe?

The cell constant, or K factor, is crucial when choosing a sensor. This number gives the probe’s geometry. It also shows which liquids the sensor can measure.

A low cell constant indicates a small distance between the conductor surfaces. It also means less liquid to measure. This makes it suitable for pure and ultra-pure water.

A larger cell constant allows more liquid to enter the probe. This makes it suitable for liquids with higher expected conductivity. Understanding these factors helps you choose the right sensor. The HMCCS- Conductivity Sensor, with its precise measurements and robust design, is a top choice for professionals in pharmaceuticals, food technology, and water treatment.
