Sensor conductivity, 0 … 0.2 / 2 / 20 µS

This sensor can be used for measuring salinity and changes in conductivity of a water sample. Although it will not identify the specific ions that are present, it can be used to determine the total concentration of ions in a sample.

Technical specifications:

Measurement ranges: Ranges: 0 .. 200 µS / 0 .. 2000 µS / 0 .. 20000 µS
Resolution: 0.1 µS / 1 µS / 10 µS
Accuracy: ±1% of full-scale reading for each range
Automatic temperature compensation (5°C .. 35°C)
Maximum sample frequency: 100 kHz (CoachLab II+, WiLab) / 1 MHz (VinciLab 2)
Required: One sensor cable (BTsc_1 or BTsc_1Short)
Warrantee: 3 years

All technical specifications of the sensor are described in the product manual, see downloads.

The Conductivity sensor can be used in a variety of chemistry experiments, such as:

Confirmation of the direct relation between conductivity and ion concentration in aqueous solutions
Concentration of unknown samples can be determined
Measurement of changes in conductivity resulting from photosynthesis in aquatic plants
Monitoring the rate of reaction in a chemical reaction in which dissolved ions and solution conductivity varies with time due to ionic species being consumed or produced
Finding the rate at which ionic species diffuse through a membrane such as dialysis tubing

A ‘P4272-1K BT sensor cable, single’ is required to connect the sensor to the interface.
Please check whether you already have this cable in your stock.
