Presentation OnElectric Conductivity (EC)
Conductivity is a measure of the ability of an aqueous solution to carry an electric current. This ability depends on -•The total concentration of ions (cations & anions )• Their mobility, Valance and •Temperature
Unit : -µS/cm, -s/m, - mho (ohm-1) Bangladesh standard value: Nil

Why does we measure it ?• It is one the indicator of water purity.• We can get idea about TDS, Salinity from it.• One can guess whether the sample water
contains sewage ,Industrial drainage and sea water.
• We can guess the degree of mineralization.

Measuring procedure of Conductivity Tester
• Take about 25/30 ml sample in a beaker.• On the EC meter by pressing ON/OFF button &
remove the protective Cap• Immerse the bottom of the tester into the
sample.• Using the tester gently stir the sample & wait
some times for reading.Note: Its measuring range 10-1990 µS/cm at 0-50˚C
temperature. Verify its accuracy by measuring known calibration standard.

Maintenance• Use distilled water to wash the bottom of the
tester .• Wipe it with tissue paper after using & Replace
the cap.• Always off the switch after using.• Maintain or Improve performance by periodically
rinsing the stainless steel electrode in Isopropyl alcohol.

Typical range of conductivities of various types of natural waters
Type of water EC (µS/cm)Rain water 10-100
Stream and river water 30-2000
Shallow ground water 100-5000
Deep ground water 300-5000
Saline ground water and brines 5000-300000

Conclusion
To get accurate EC result, measure immediately after sample collection.
Thank you for
your all kind attention.

pHWhat is pH ?• pH is the Negative logarithm of the
concentration of hydrogen ion in a solution. • pH= -log [H+]. • If pH value < 7, sample is Acidic. pH value = 7, sample is neutral. pH value >7,sample is alkaline.• pH depends on temperature. Pocket pH meter
