Sanitary
tri-clamp
flange version.
Signet 2818-2823 Conductivity/Resistivity Electrodes
are designed to provide versatile installation and
accurate sensing across a very broad dynamic range.
These electrodes are built with a controlled surface
finish to ensure accuracy and repeatability. The
standard electrode is constructed 316 SS or Titanium,
but there are other materials available for maximum
chemical compatibility.
Reversible threads or sanitary flanges allow for
maximum installation versatility. Sanitary flange
versions are available with surface quality finish of
less than RA 25 and with an optional NIST Traceability
Certificate to meet USP requirements. Coupled with
Signet patented measuring circuitry, a three decade
measurement range is achieved without the need for
troublesome electrode platinization. A platinum RTD
(PT1000) located within the electrode allows optimal
temperature sensing.

Operating Temperature/Pressure Graphs
Note:
The pressure/temperature graphs are specifically
for the Signet sensor. During system design the
specifications of all components must be considered.
In the case of a metal piping system, a plastic sensor
will reduce the system specification.

Application Tips
• Liquid levels must be high enough to cover vent hole
on sensor body.
• Threads on models 2823 can be reversed in the field.
• Use 2819 series electrodes with the 3-2850-63
electronics and 8900 for applications requiring
multiple measuring points.
• Install sensors in an area that will remain free of air
bubbles and sediment build-up.
• Conductivity measurements are affected if
electrodes are coated by process substances.

Ordering Notes
1) Alternate wetted materials and sensor lengths are
available through special order.
2) The 2818 and 2819 maximum cable length is 7.6 m
(25 ft) unless used with the 9900.
3) All other sensors - cable lengths of up to
30 m (100 ft) are available - consult factory.
4) Use PN 3-2820.390 or 3-2820.391 for a submersible
threaded connection.
