This mode allows you to measure the conductivity of solutions.
Conductance is a value associated with the ability of primarily
aqueous solutions to carry an electrical current. The presence of ions
in an aqueous solution increases the solution’s ability to carry an
electrical current. Impurities in the solution, such as metals, dissolved
soil, etc. increases the ion content of the solution. For this reason,
conductivity is considered to be an indication of how clean the
solution is. The meter will automatically convert conductivity
measurements to salinity, Total Dissolved Solids, or Resistivity
measurements. The meter will continually monitor the conductivity
reading in this mode and will not lock onto a single reading. However,
once the reading has become stable, STABLE will be displayed.
Remember to setup your conductivity measuring mode parameters.
Refer to pages 94-109 for CONDUCTIVITY SETUP instructions.
