Application:

Usually electrical conductivity EC (Conductivity Electrical) is used to measure the concentration of soluble salts in the solution of the indicators, units per meter for the SIEMENS S/m (1S/m=10mS/cm = 10000uS/cm = 10dS/m).The conductivity and temperature of the soil can be determined by measuring the conductivity and temperature of the soil substrate or nutrient solution depending on the nature of the temperature and salinity. The EC value of the measurement temperature is usually 25 degrees Celsius, the same solution, the lower temperature of the measurement EC value is lower.Under normal temperature condition,, The variation of electrical conductivity of each phase is about 2% .

The conductivity and salinity are approximately linear, its proportion is based on temperature 25 ℃, the proportion is:1 S/cm=0.55 ~ 0.75mg/l salt content. At other temperatures, it is necessary to be adjusted, that is, the temperature of each change 1℃, the salinity of about 1.5-2%.

The temperature is higher than 25 ℃ with negative, temperature lower than 25℃ with positive. So the salt can be estimated according to the electrical conductivity.

Characteristics:

Soil moisture content, electrical conductivity and temperature three parameters.

One solution can also be used for fertilizer, and other nutrient solution conductivity matrix.

（3）Electrode using special treatment of the alloy material, can withstand a strong external impact, not easy to damage.

（4）Completely sealed, acid and alkali corrosion, can be buried in the soil or directly into the water for long-term dynamic testing.

（5）High precision, fast response, good compatibility, the probe insert design to ensure accurate measurement, reliable performance.

（6）Perfect protection circuit and a variety of signal output interface.
