For calibration of Conductivity (EC), cF and TDS meters

Regular calibration of conductivity meters is essential to ensure accurate readings. 

NOTE: Poorly maintained electrodes can upset the linearity of the readout values either side of the Conductivity Standard’s value. Thus it is essential to clean the electrode in Electrode Cleaner prior to calibrating.
 

Calibrates to 2.76mS / cm (cF 27.6) at 25 Deg C / 77 Deg F.
 

Based on international (APHA) standard formula.  Contains potassium chloride.
 

Highly stable formulation that resists the growth of algae, fungus, etc.  'Growths' can contaminate electrodes and cause interference that 'distorts' electrode calibration.
 

Full usage instructions on labeling.
 

Available in 250ml and 1L.

Conductivity readings are not always useful !  Conductivity (cF, mS) or TDS measurements are used to gauge the total concentration of all salts (i.e. both beneficial and toxic) present in the nutrient solution. They cannot provide any detail on the concentrations of 'individual' nutrients. Therefore, since a ‘satisfactory’ reading does not imply a balanced nutrient mixture or provide any information on the level of nuisance salts, it is wise to dump every 7-14 days. This is particularly necessary when using salty make-up water because such water causes nuisance chemicals to build up rapidly to toxic levels.
