CONDUCTIVITY VERSUS
TEMPERATURE CHART
The conductivity of an aqueous solution is the measure of its ability to
carry an electrical current by means of ionic motion.
The conductivity invariably increases with increasing temperature.
It is affected by the type and number of ions in the solution and by
the viscosity of the solution itself. Both parameters are temperature
dependent. The dependency of conductivity on temperature is
expressed as a relative change per degree Celsius at a particular
temperature, commonly as %/°C.
Since a small difference in temperature causes a large change in
conductivity, the readings are usually normalized at 25°C.
HI 2314 manually compensates for temperature differences with a
fixed coefficient of 2%/°C.
HI 2315 automatically compensates for temperature differences, and
features an user-selectable coefficient that can be manually adjusted
through a front knob, from 0 (no compensation) to 2.5%/°C.
• Adjust the Temp. Coefficient knob to 2%/°C.
• Select the appropriate range:
199.9 µS for HI 7033
1999 µS for HI 7031
19.99 mS for HI 7030
199.9 mS for HI 7034
Note: If the display shows range limit value blinking, there is an
over-range condition. Select the next higher range.
• Allow a few minutes for the reading to stabilize, then adjust the
Calibration knob to read the calibration solution conductivity
value at 25°C (77°F), e.g. 12.88 mS/cm.
• All subsequent measurements will be referenced to 25°C (77°F).
• To reference the measurements to 20°C (68°F), adjust the
Calibration knob to read the calibration solution conductivity
value at 20°C (68°F), e.g. 11.67 mS/cm. See the “Conductivity
vs. Temperature Chart” on page 13.
• Calibration is now complete and the instrument is ready for use.
