STCON3 vs STCON7 Selection Note
The OHAUS STCON3 is the better fit for broad-range conductivity testing, including many routine water, wastewater, environmental, food, beverage, and QC samples.
If your application is focused on very low-conductivity samples such as pure water, distilled water, or deionized water, the OHAUS STCON7 Low Conductivity Probe may be a better choice. Contact Cambridge before ordering if you are unsure which OHAUS conductivity probe is correct for your sample range.
Care and Use Notes
For best results, keep the plastic shield in place during measurement and make sure the solution reaches the correct level on the shield while remaining below the vent hole.
Rinse the probe with distilled water between and after measurements to reduce carry-over, especially when moving from high-conductivity samples to lower-conductivity samples.
Make sure the cell chamber is bubble-free during measurement. Allow sufficient time for the sensor to stabilize when measuring samples at different temperatures. Follow the OHAUS meter manual and your internal laboratory procedure for calibration, measurement, cleaning, and storage.
Conductivity Probe Selection Note
Conductivity probe selection depends on your expected measurement range, sample type, meter compatibility, temperature conditions, and laboratory procedure. If you are testing very low-conductivity water, high-conductivity salt solutions, wastewater, food process samples, or production water, confirm the correct probe and standard before ordering.
