Optical CS150TC / TDS Contact Conductivity Sensor with Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) Renkeer offers many excellent metrology sensors that can be used to measure the EC of water. These sensors can take measurements in microsiemens, millisiemens or TDS (the latter represents the total amount of dissolved solids). When TDS is used to measure the electrical conductivity of water, the measurement is given in ppm or PPM. The higher the reading, the higher the conductivity.
There are two types of sensors that can measure the conductivity of water: contact conductivity sensors and toroidal conductivity sensors. Contact conductivity sensors are unique in that they place two separate surfaces in the water, which can be made of materials such as graphite or platinum. The waveform of the voltage is transferred from one surface to the other. So he has to cross the water. When the second surface receives the signal, the EC reading is transferred to the digital display. It is always a good idea to keep an eye on one reading so that you can compare it with another. When significant changes occur, we can respond accordingly.
The toroidal conductivity sensor uses a system of two coils in a plastic housing. The coil that transmits the signal creates a magnetic field to create an electric current. This current flow is determined by a pick-up coil. A high current means there are many ions in the water, indicating high electrical conductivity. This sensor excels because it is completely immune to pollution problems. Therefore, toroidal sensors are widely used in applications that require high water conductivity, such as seawater monitoring, cooling towers, and chemical treatment.
Cooling tower
The benefits of water EC sensor depend on the sensor selected. For example, the CS150TC sensor can be used in laboratory and environmental applications. This particular sensor can be mounted inside the pipe, used with a table display or directly immersed in the tank, making it a universal sensor. The CS675HTTC is the best choice if the sensor is used in high temperature boilers. This model has a durable stainless steel housing and a temperature of up to 200 degrees Celsius.
If you need a sensor that measures the water in the cooling tower, the CS8300TC is specially designed for this application. This model is dustproof and enables digital communication. As with our standard toroidal sensors, this option is ideal for industrial and chemical applications. It is known that these sensors are very sensitive and require little maintenance. Whichever sensor you choose, you can easily measure the electrical conductivity of the water.
Why should I use a conductivity tester to test water quality?
Testing of water equipment.
The use of EC test equipment to measure water quality is important for several important reasons. Significant changes in the electrical conductivity of the water indicate that contaminants have entered the water or other problems are present, so measurements that identify these changes can help prevent problems such as limescale and limescale in the biocide.
These tests can be performed in a variety of environments and environments, most of which are industrial in nature. Some of the most common uses of EC testers are in laboratories where environmental testing is performed, cooling towers, boilers, and pharmaceutical testing. The treatment of activated sludge can be checked by installing a tester in the sewage treatment plant. While the EC of water testing is essential for businesses, it can also be helpful for individuals in certain situations. If your home has an outdoor pool, you can use an EC tester to determine the TDS level of the pool water. If the water level is above 2000 PPM, the water must be filtered or drained to prevent scale build-up.
No matter what industry you work in, this number will help you decide if you need to treat your water. To get the perfect EC reading for your water, please treat it with the EC sensor first. We recommend you try it. Measuring your score will help you decide if your EC levels are too high or too low.
