Conducell 4UxF Conductivity Sensors - Traditional
Traditional Conducell 4UxF 4-pole conductivity sensors have a VP6 connector and are available with PG13.5, VariVent, or Bioconnect process connections. These FDA certified sensors are designed to withstand CIP, SIP, and autoclavation. They are compatible for easy use in hygienic applications with good linearity over a broad conductivity range. Electrodes are available in Stainless Steel (USF, 1.4435, & UHF, 2.4602), Platinum (UPtF), and Titanium (UTF). Stainless steel is the most common electrode material and is suitable for typical biopharmaceutical applications. Platinum can be used for long term stability and corrosion resistance. In cases of highly corrosive or chemically aggressive applications, Hastelloy can be chosen for its exceptional resistance. Titanium is well suited for use with corrosion such as seawater. These products must be paired with a conductivity transmitter such as the Hamilton H100.

Does temperature affect conductivity measurement?
Yes, temperature has a direct impact on conductivity. Increasing temperature increases the mobility of ions within a solution and results in higher conductivity measurements. Temperature compensation can be performed using empirically derived temperature coefficients, which may be different for various solutions. -
Which liquid conductivity standard should I use for calibration?
A conductivity standard should be chosen that most closely matches the anticipated conductivity range of the process. -
What can I use to clean the conductivity sensor electrodes if fouling occurs?
The metal electrodes of 2 and 4-pole sensors can be cleaned with water and mild detergents and washed with deionized water after cleaning. Care should be taken to not use cleaning agents that can impact the material of the electrodes. Click to reference the knowledgebase article on cleaning for more information.
