Cell Body / Housing: Pressure Rating Typically 0-10 bar

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are best for corrosive applications?

PTFE (Teflon) or PEEK housings offer excellent chemical resistance for highly corrosive environments, while 316L stainless steel provides good general-purpose corrosion resistance.

How does housing design affect measurement accuracy?

Proper housing design minimizes electrical interference, maintains stable temperature around electrodes, and prevents contamination, all critical for accurate conductivity readings.
