A solution for every application

Conductivity 4 pole sensors

Four premium electrodes provide a range of options tailored to specific applications. Platinum and stainless steel are ideal for biopharma. Platinum offers long-term stability and corrosion resistance, making it specifically suited for downstream applications, such as, chromatography and tangential flow filtration. For highly corrosive or chemically aggressive environments, Hastelloy is an excellent choice due to its exceptional resistance. Titanium is particularly well-suited for applications involving corrosive environments, such as seawater.

Choose the right electrode material for your needs

Electrode material Material properties and application guidance
Stainless steel 1.4435 Proven standard for electrodes, cost-effective and suitable for a wide range of applications.
Platinum Excellent measurement performance, high inertness and outstanding electrochemical stability. Reduced aging, ensuring long-term stable and very precise results. As a noble metal, platinum exhibits low polarization effects, making it particularly suitable for biopharmaceutical applications.
Hastelloy 2.4602 More resistant to chemicals and oxidizing agents than 1.4435 while still widely used in hygienic applications. Recommended for chemical industry environments due to their reduced aging.
Titanium High hardness, scratch and corrosion resistance, and excellent biocompatibility, making it particularly suitable for applications with abrasive solutions or particles and for use in contact with the human body or in pharmaceutical environments. Most suitable for brine, salt water and sea water applications.

FAQ

Does the cell constant of my conductivity sensor change over time?

The cell constant of a conductivity sensor may change over time due to corrosion of the electrodes from an aggressive media, or due to fouling of the electrodes. Calibration adjusts the cell constant and can help offset these effects to a certain extent.

FAQ

How much torque is needed to install a sensor with PG13.5 threads?

Sensors with PG13.5 threads rely on the o-ring to seal against process pressure. Finger-tight (approximately 2 Newton Meter or 18 inch-lb) should be sufficient to install the sensor without leakage. Additional tightening beyond this can deform the o-ring or strip the threads.

FAQ

Can Hamilton conductivity sensors be used with my existing transmitter?

In most cases, yes! Transmitters specifically designed for either 2-pole, 4-pole conductivity are generally compatible with Hamilton Conducell products. The transmitter temperature sensor input (PT1000) should be checked to ensure it matches the sensor.
