Vernier Platinum-Cell Conductivity Probe
Order code: CONPT-BTA
VERNIER PLATINUM-CELL CONDUCTIVITY PROBE
The Vernier Platinum-Cell Conductivity Probe allows students to explore the dependence of conductivity on temperature with the option of aqueous temperature compensation (2%) or no temperature compensation. The 2-cell platinum sensing element and epoxy body of this electrode ensures greater chemical compatibility and accuracy when measuring the conductivity of stronger acids and bases and non-aqueous solutions. This plug and play sensor also boasts an improved accuracy over comparable conductivity meters. No calibration necessary.
Requirements:
This sensor requires suitable software and an interface such as one of the Vernier LabQuest variations or Vernier Go-Link.
For comprehensive details of the possible sensor/interface/software combinations see the Compatibility Guide link below.
Specifications:
• Range: 0–2000µS/cm
• Body Description: epoxy body, 2-cell platinum element
• Accuracy using factory calibration: ±40µS/cm
• Accuracy using custom calibration: ±10µS/cm
