EC 214 and EC 215 are digital bench-top multirange conductivity
meters designed for simplicity of use in measuring electrical conduc-
tivity in liquids.
Four ranges of conductivity measurements are provided to cover every
application from deionized water to brine.
The calibration is made simple through the easy-to-operate front
panel knob for slope adjustment.
The conductivity probe does not require re-calibration when switching
from one range to another.
The probe is made of glass with 4 platinum rings that are corrosion
resistant. It is also suitable for measuring conductivity of liquids in
small sample sizes, and comes with a 1 m (3.3') cable.
The temperature effect can be compensated through a knob on the
front panel of EC 214.
With EC 215, the 4-ring probe has a built-in temperature sensor that
automatically compensates for temperature changes in the liquid
tested. The temperature coefficient can be adjusted from 0 to 2.5%
through a knob on the front panel.
It is also available a model with recorder output feature: EC 215R.
