Application basics

Water supplies and treatment performance can change. Conductivity helps track overall water quality and known chemical concentrations; it does not identify individual contaminants. Common applications include:

01 / CHEMICAL CONCENTRATION

Track a known process

Correlate the concentration of a known chemical added to water of a predetermined conductivity.

  • Rinse Tanks
  • Fertilizer Control
  • Printing Press Fountain Solutions
  • Process Water

02 / WATER QUALITY

Monitor treatment performance

Follow changes in water quality through supply, purification and process systems.

  • Water Supplies and Purification Systems, including RO, DI, and Desalination
  • Cooling Towers and Boiler Water Systems
  • Commercial and Industrial Processes
  • Wastewater
