2. Cell constant selection
The nominal process value should be near the center of
the range. Ranges below are for use with +GF+ SIGNET
Conductivity instruments:
• 2839 (0.01 cell): 0.010 to 100 µS (10 kΩ /to 100 MΩ)
• 2840 (0.1 cell): 1 to 1000 µS (1 MΩ to 1 kΩ)
• 2841 (1.0 cell): 10 to 10,000 µS
• 2842 (10.0 cell): 100 to 200,000 µS

3. In-line installation for all -1X electrodes
• Inspect threads to ensure integrity. Do not install an electrode with damaged threads.
• Apply sealant or PTFE tape to threads.
• Wetted materials include 316L stainless steel, PEEK™ and FPM (FPM O-ring inside 2841, 2842).
Check for chemical compatibility before installing electrode.
• The -1X electrodes are supplied with 5 m (15 ft.) of cable. It may be extended to a maximum 30 m (100 ft.)
• For resistivity measurements above 10 MΩ or below 20°C, maximum cable length is 25 ft. (7.6 m)
If the electrode is mounted
vertically in a tee, do not recess
the openings inside the tee.
Mounting upside down may help
prevent air entrapment.
An oversized tee may also be
helpful for inline installations.
The preferred installation for in-line
applications directs fl ow straight into the

specifi cations.
4. Submersible installation for all -1X electrodes
• Wetted materials include 316L stainless steel, PEEK™ (FPM O-ring inside 2841, 2842).
• Check for chemical compatibility before installing electrode.
• The -1X electrodes are supplied with 15 ft. of cable. It may be extended to a maximum 30 m (100 ft.)
• For resistivity measurements above 10 MΩ or below 20°C, maximum cable length is 25 ft. (7.6 m)
1. Feed cable into watertight conduit.
2. Apply thread sealant to the electrode before threading
conduit onto electrode. Avoid twisting the cable.
3. Secure cable with conduit or cable gland.
4. For additional defense against possible accumulation of
condensation at the back seal area of the electrode, fi ll the
lower 3-4 inches (75-100 mm) of conduit or extension pipe
with a fl exible sealant such as silicone.
In aerated vessels install the electrode
in a stillwell to prevent air from being
trapped inside the electrode.
