Component Specifications

Definition
The cell body or housing is a precision-engineered enclosure that protects the internal electrodes and electronics of a conductivity cell from environmental factors while maintaining measurement accuracy. It provides structural integrity, chemical resistance, and thermal stability for reliable conductivity measurements in various industrial processes.
Working Principle
The housing creates a controlled environment around the conductivity cell's electrodes, shielding them from external interference while allowing sample fluid contact through designated openings. It maintains consistent temperature conditions and prevents contamination that could affect electrical conductivity measurements.
Materials
316L stainless steel (most common), PTFE (Teflon), PEEK, titanium, or specialized glass for specific applications. Material selection depends on chemical compatibility, temperature range, and required durability.
Technical Parameters
  • IP Rating IP65 to IP68 for protection
  • Cell Constant K=0.1, K=1.0, or K=10 cm⁻¹
  • Connection Type NPT, BSP, Tri-Clamp, or flange connections
  • Pressure Rating Typically 0-10 bar
  • Mounting Options Inline, submersion, or flow-through
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 150°C (depending on material)
Standards
ISO 7888, DIN 19266, ASTM D1125
