Description
Overview
GAOTek advanced digital conductivity & temperature meter 0-2000 pS/m provides a measurement of electrical conductivity of fluids in conductivity units (CU), which are defined as Pico siemens per meter. The rugged electro/mechanical design facilitates ease of use for both laboratory and field applications. The meter was designed and developed for safety reasons to measure the electrical conductivity of hydrocarbon fuels, particularly jet fuels. Additional pre-amp versions are available to accommodate measurement of a variety of fluids for different applications. The portable digital conductivity meter consists of an electronics assembly and a stainless steel probe. The probe, which is similar to a capacitor having concentric electrodes, is immersed into the fluid, up to the set of holes. During the read cycle a relatively small direct current flows through the fluid between the electrodes. The current is amplified in the electronics assembly and is displayed on the liquid crystal display in Pico siemens per meter (pS/m). This data is then stored in non-volatile memory and can be retrieved until the next read.
