Handheld conductivity measuring device Bases for measurement | 5
B-H87.0.01.DB2-1.0 11 / 28
5 Bases for measurement
5.1 Conductivity principles
Conductivity γ
Conductivity describes the capability of a material to conduct electrical current. It is also the inverse of specific resistance. The conductance is the inverse of the meas­ured resistance R.
Formula
γ = l / (R*A)
l = length of the material
A = cross section
R = measured resistance
Unit [γ] = Siemens / metre = S / m
Normally, the values for liquids are specified in µS / cm or in mS / cm.
5.2 Conductivity measurement
The conductivity measurement is a comparatively uncomplicated measurement. The standard electrodes are stable for correct use for a long time and can be calibrated over the gradient correction.
Range 1 2 3
0 to 2000 µS/cm 0.00 to 20.00 mS/cm 0 to 200 mS/cm
With the automatic range selection, the range with the best resolution is selected auto­matically.
5.3 Total dissolved solids / TDS measurement
The total dissolved solids measurement - TDS measurement - determines the total dissolved solids, which also called evaporation residue, based on the conductivity and a conversion factor CtdS of the total dissolved solids. Well-suited to conduct simple concentration measurements of salt solutions. The display shows mg/l
Range 1
0 to 2000 mg/l
Display value TDS = conductivity [in µs/cm, nLF temperature compensation at 25°C] * CtdS menu entry
With selection of TDS, the necessary temperature compensation is selected automat­ically. Menu settings for temperature compensation are ignored.
The following approximations apply:
CtdS
0.50 Monovalent salts with 2 ion types = NaCl, KCl or similar
0.50 Natural water of surface water, drinking water
0.65 to 0.70 Salt concentration of aqueous fertiliser solutions
NOTE
These are guideline values for estimates, but are not suitable for precise measure­ments. The conversion factor for the respective type of solution and the examined concentration range must be determined for precise measurements. This can take

place with calibration to known comparison solutions or with actual evaporation of a certain amount of liquid with measured conductivity and subsequent weight of the total dissolved solids.
5.4 Salt content / salinity measurement
In SAL measuring mode, the salinity, which is the salt content of sea water, is determ­ined. The basis for this is the International Oceanographic Tables, IOT. Standard salt water has a salinity of 35 ‰, 35 g of salt per 1 kg of sea water. The display in % [g/kg] normally does not show units. The designation PSU, Practical Salinity Unit, is also commonly used; the display value is identical. The salinity measurement has temper­ature compensation, which means the temperature is considered for the display and has a major influence on the display value; any menu settings regarding temperature compensation are ignored.
NOTE
The salt composition of different seas is not identical. Depending on the location, weather, seasons, etc., there are considerable deviations from the 35 ‰ according to the IOT. The salt composition can also influence the relationship of the salinity display and the actual amount of salt present.
Corresponding tables are available for many salts in salt water aquarium applications. Salt weight to salinity according to the IOT or conductivity. In consideration of these tables, very precise salinity measurements can be conducted.
5.5 Electrodes / measuring cell
5.5.1 Design and selection
There are basically two different types of measuring cells: 2-pole and 4-pole measur­ing cells. Control and/or evaluation take place in a similar manner; the 4-pole measur­ing cells can compensate well for polarisation effects and contamination to a certain degree with the more elaborate measuring processes. The product is equipped with a permanently connected 2-pole measuring cell.
2-pole measuring cell
4-pole measuring cell
Universal 2-pole graphite measuring cell with wide range of applications, such as fish husbandry, measurement of surface water and drinking water.
5.5.2 Calibration / adjustment of the measuring cell
In harsh applications and due to ageing processes, the cell constant of measuring cells changes. Depending on the application and precision requirement, the overall precision of the display device and measuring cell measuring chain should be checked regularly. Special testing and calibration solutions, such as GKL 100, 101 and 102 are available for this purpose. In normal application conditions, semi-annual testing is re-

For this purpose, also refer to
2 Adjustment of the measuring input [}20]
2 Calibration and adjustment service [}15]
5.6 Temperature compensation
The conductivity of aqueous solutions is temperature-dependent. The temperature de­pendency varies greatly according to the type of solution. With temperature compens­ation, the solution is calculated back to a uniform temperature in order to compare it independently of the temperature. The normal operating temperature for this is 25 °C.
5.6.1 NLF temperature compensation according to EN 27888
For most applications, such as fish husbandry applications and measurement of sur­face water and drinking water, non-linear temperature compensation for natural water
NLF is sufficiently accurate in accordance with EN 27888. The normal operating tem­perature is 25 °C. The recommended application range of NLF compensation is
between 60 µS/cm and 1000 µS/cm.

Gradient correction °F: Display = (measured value – 32 °F – T.OF) * (1 + T.SL / 100) + 32 °F
Gradient correction γ: Display = measured value / T.SL
Example calculation
Temperature
– Zero point correction T.OF to 0.00 – Gradient correction T.SL to 0.00 – Display unit UNIT to °C
– Display in ice water -0.2 °C – Display in ice water setpoint T.OF = 0.0 °C
– Display in water bath 36.6 °C – Display in water bath setpoint T.SL = 37.0 °C – T.OF = display zero point correction – setpoint zero point – T.OF = -0.2 °C – 0.0 °C = -0.2 °C – T.SL = (setpoint gradient correction / (display gradient correction – T.OF) – 1) *100 – T.SL = (37.0 °C / (36.6 °C – (-0.2)) -1) *100 = 0.54
Conductivity
– Gradient correction S(L to 1.000 – Temperature compensation TCORR to OFF
– Control solution GKL 100 as reference
– Display in GKL 100 at 25 °C, setpoint = 1413 µS/cm
– Display = 1388 µS/cm – S(L = setpoint / display value – S(L = 1413 µS/cm / 1388 µS/cm = 1.018
