Learn moreWhy measure conductivity in water?
Measuring conductivity in water is crucial for assessing water quality. It provides insights into the water’s ability to conduct electrical currents, a key indicator of dissolved ions and contaminants, salinity levels, and overall water health. Understanding conductivity aids in identifying potential pollution sources, ensuring early intervention for effective water management. Whether in urban wastewater, industrial effluent, or marine environments, regular conductivity monitoring with Aqualabo’s advanced sensors empowers industries and environmental authorities to make informed decisions, promoting sustainable water usage and safeguarding aquatic ecosystems.
Main applications of conductivity measurement in water
Conductivity measurement stands as a cornerstone in diverse water applications. Aqualabo’s advanced sensors find indispensable use in urban wastewater treatment, ensuring compliance with stringent quality standards. In industrial effluent control, conductivity monitoring becomes pivotal for maintaining discharge parameters. Surface water monitoring benefits from accurate assessments, identifying variations and potential contaminants. In sea water analysis, our probes provide valuable insights into marine ecosystems; moreover, conductivity measurement proves crucial in optimizing conditions for aquaculture.
Measurement principles used by Aqualabo’s conductivity CTZN/C4E probes
Aqualabo’s conductivity sensors employ cutting-edge measurement principles to ensure accurate and reliable data. The CTZN sensor with a measuring range from 0 to 100 mS/cm utilizes an inductive method with ring-type coils, creating a robust system that requires minimal maintenance and avoids consumables. This technology facilitates consistent conductivity readings in demanding water conditions. On the other hand, the C4E sensor with a measuring range of 0 to 200mS/cm employs a sophisticated 4-electrode system. By using alternating current and constant voltage, this system regulates voltage, compensating for fouling, and guarantees precise measurements even in challenging environments. Aqualabo’s commitment to innovative measurement principles ensures dependable conductivity assessments for applications ranging from urban wastewater to sea water monitoring.

FAQ Conductivity Salinity sensor
How often do Aqualabo’s conductivity probes require recalibration and maintenance?
Thanks to smart digital technology, Aqualabo sensors, including CTZN and C4E, store calibration data internally, offering a plug and play experience without the need for frequent recalibration. Regular maintenance may include cleaning the electrodes, checking for damage and calibrating the sensors. The CTZN (inductive) requires minimal maintenance due to its resistance to fouling, making it a practical choice for installations where access for maintenance may be limited. While generally low maintenance, the C4E (4-electrode system) sensor may require more attention in environments prone to fouling.
Can Aqualabo sensors withstand harsh environmental conditions?
Yes, Aqualabo sensors are built to withstand challenging conditions. The sensors are IP68 rated and constructed with durable materials, ensuring reliability in various water environments.
What is the advantage of the 4-electrode system in C4E probes?
The 4-electrode system in C4E sensors provides enhanced accuracy by regulating voltage and compensating for fouling, ensuring precise conductivity measurements in wastewater, drinking water, and more.
What is the benefit of the inductive method used in CTZN probes?
The inductive method in CTZN sensors ensures resilience to fouling, making them particularly well-suited for applications where water conditions might lead to sensor contamination. This feature enhances the sensor's reliability, especially in environments prone to fouling or sedimentation.
