Introduction

The PS-2116A Conductivity Sensor measures ionic and

non-ionic molecules in aqueous solutions. These measure-

ments can be used to investigate factors that influence the

electrical conductivity of liquids. This sensor can be used to

explore the effects of temperature and concentration on the

electrical transport properties of aqueous solutions. The Sys-

teme International (SI) unit) for conductivity is the siemen

per centimeter (S/cm). When dealing with a chemical solu-

tion ranging from extremely dilute to very concentrated

chemical, use of conductivity units of S/cm and mS/cm are

common. In these applications, conductivity has the advan-

tage of an almost direct relationship with impurities, espe-

cially at low concentration.The sensor has three ranges.

The sensor is designed to work with a PASPORT-compatible

interface (such as the UI-5100 850 Universal Interface) and

PASCO data acquisition software (such as PASCO Cap-

stone) to measure electrolytic conductivity.

The 10X Conductivity Probe can be replaced if necessary.

Sensor Theory

Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance. Conductivity is

the specific conductance of a material. The conductivity is

the conductance measured between the opposite faces of a

one centimeter cube of the material.

The electrode cell in the end of the Con-

ductivity Probe is constructed of an

insulating material embedded with

pieces of platinum. These metal contacts

serve as sensing elements and are placed

at a fixed distance apart.

Setup the Sensor

• Soak the end of the probe in deionized or distilled water

for five to ten minutes.

• Connect the BNC Connector of the Conductivity Probe

to the BNC Port on the sensor.

• Plug the sensor into one of the PASPORT input ports of

a PASCO PASPORT-compatible interface.
