Conductivity Meters for Water
Accurate and Efficient Water Conductivity Testing
A conductivity meter for water is a tool that assesses the ability of water to transmit electricity by determining its conductivity. It measures the concentration of ions, such as salts and other dissolved solids, in water, which affects its electrical conductivity. Portable and benchtop conductivity meters for water are ideal for industries such as water treatment, food & beverage, and pharmaceuticals, providing improved accuracy, speed, ease of use, data management, and cost-effectiveness.

FAQs
How do you measure the conductivity of water using a conductivity meter?
To measure the conductivity of water using a conductivity meter, you should first calibrate your conductivity sensor correctly. Then, rinse the sensor with distilled water and submerge it into the representative water sample. Allow the reading to stabilize, record the conductivity reading and repeat the process for accuracy, if required. When finished, rinse the probe with distilled water and dry it with a clean cloth.
METTLER TOLEDO offers digital conductivity meters for water that are intuitive and user-friendly. With a large and well-structured display, convenient button arrangement, and simple menu, these meters make it easy to perform accurate conductivity measurements with just a few clicks.
What does a conductivity meter measure in water?
A conductivity meter measures water's ability to conduct electrical current (by measuring dissolved ions present in the solution). Water with high conductivity has a high concentration of ions, while water with low conductivity has fewer ions.
Conductivity measurements are used to determine the level of total dissolved solids (TDS) in water. These meters are widely used in various fields, such as water treatment, agriculture, and scientific research.
What is a good conductivity level in drinking water?
An acceptable range for the conductivity of potable water is typically between 200 and 800 µS/cm, though the ideal range may vary depending on factors such as the water source and local regulations.
Can a conductivity meter measure both high- and low-conductivity water?
Yes, a water conductivity meter is capable of measuring both high- and low-conductivity water. These meters are designed to measure a wide range of conductivity values (0.001 μS/cm – 2000 mS/cm). It should be noted that the measurement of conductivity is influenced by the type of sensor used.
