Measurement With Ion-Selective Electrodes; Conductivity Parameter - Giorgio Bormac 8+ Série Manuel D'utilisation

Important: make at least two calibration points, if
shows the error "Not enough calibrated points" and calibration is invalidated.
ATTENTION: Before proceeding with the calibration operations, carefully consult the safety data sheets of
the substances involved:
Standard calibration buffer solution.
•
• Storage solution for ISE electrodes.
• Filling solution for ISE electrodes.

Measurement with Ion-Selective Electrodes

•
• Access the Ion setup menu to verify the correctness of the calibration and the instrumental
parameters, Press
key.
Correctly connect the ISE sensor to pH/mV/ORP BNC, rinse with distilled water, dab gently and insert
•
it into the sample.
The display shows the measurement in mV until the stability is reached.
•
When the measure stabilizes, the mV measurement is replaced by the concentration of the analyte
•
with the unit of measurement chosen by the user.
Important: If the device is not calibrated, in measurement mode, only the mVs are displayed.
Note: If you are using as stability criteria countdown of seconds, to resume counting press

Conductivity Parameter

Cond8+, Cond80+, PC8+DHS, PC80+DHS
Connect the Conductivity probe to the BNC type connector marked in grey, while the temperature probe
must be connected to the RCA / CINCH Temp connector always on a grey background.
Conductivity is defined as the ability of the ions contained in a solution to conduct an electric current. This
parameter provides a quick and reliable indication of the number of ions present in a solution.
• ... how to get to the conductivity?
The first Ohm law enunciates the direct proportionality in a conductor between the current intensity (I) and
the applied electric potential difference (V) while the resistence (R) represents the constant of
proportionality. In particular: "V = R x I", consequently the resistence "R = V / I", where R = resistence (ohm),
V = voltage (volt), I = current (ampere). The reverse of resistence is defined as conductance (G) "G = 1 / R"
and it is express in Siemens (S). The measurement of resistance or conductance requires a measuring cell,
which consists in two poles of opposite charge. The reading depends on the geometry of the measuring cell,
which is described through the cell constant parameter "C = d/A" express in cm
in cm between the two electrodes and A their surface in cm
