Compensation Coefficient (Linear temperature compensation only) The temperature coefficient is a factor used to express the rate a solution’s conductivity increases with an increase in temperature and is expressed as a % increase in conductivity, for a temperature change of 1 °C. The coefficient differs for different binary solutions. For typical aqueous dilute salt mixtures, 1.90 %/°C is used.

TDS factor TDS factor is a conversion factor used to convert conductivity to TDS by the equation: TDS = Factor x EC . The TDS conversion factor can be set from 0.40 to 1.00. A typical TDS conver‑ sion factor for a strong ionic solutions is 0.50, while for a weak ionic solutions (e.g. fertilizers) is 0.70. Example: TDS factor 0.5 µS/cm x 0.41 = 0.205 ppm NaCl...

Page 42
• Pour a small quantity of the standard solution into a clean beaker. If possible, use plastic beakers to minimize any EMC interferences. • For accurate calibration and to minimize cross‑contamination, use two beakers for each standard solution. One for rinsing the probe and one for calibration. •...
Note: When a cell constant value is used, the solution calibration will be cleared. A solution calibration can still be made after entering a cell constant value. CALIBRATION MESSAGES • Wrong standard solution. Check the standard solution. This message appears when the difference between the reading and the value of the selected standard is significant.

The United States Pharmacopoeia Regulations establishes limits and calibration requirements for WFI (Water For Injection). The HI5321 meter supports conductivity measurements that are needed for off line measurements in a Stage 2 of the regulation. Stage 1 verification may be carried out in a container but the regulation requires an in‑line measurement.
Page 45
Stage 1 ‑ this is an in‑line test. The procedure follows: • Measure the temperature of the water and the absolute conductivity readings. The measurement must be an in‑line measurement. Results may be verified using a laboratory method. • The temperature should be rounded down to the nearest 5 °C.
Page 46
Stage 2 ‑ this is an off‑line test. To perform this test: • Store the water sample in an enclosed clean container that has been rinsed previously with water of the same quality. • Adjust the sample’s temperature to 25 °C and agitate the sample to ensure that it has equilibrated with ambient •...
Page 47
Note: A temperature bath at 25.0 ±1.0 °C is required for this measurement. • Take the water sample from the stage 2 test and increase its ionic strength for a pH measurement at 25 °C. • Use 100 mL of Stage 2 water and add 300 µL saturated KCl to the sample.
Make sure the instrument and probe has been calibrated in conductivity mode before taking resistivity measurements. DIRECT MEASUREMENT To measure the resistivity of a sample using the Direct reading mode: • Press and then to select resistivity measure mode. • Select the Direct reading mode (see Resistivity Setup section).
DIRECT/AUTOHOLD MEASUREMENT To measure TDS of a sample using the Direct/AutoHold reading mode: • Select the Direct/AutoHold reading mode (see TDS Setup section). • Proceed the same as for the conductivity measurement. (see Conductivity Measurement section). Note: Salinity calibration is made in conductivity mode when using Natural Sea Water or Practical Sea Water measurement.

Three methods for calculating seawater salinity are supported (Natural Sea Water Scale, Practical Salinity Scale and Percent Scale). PERCENT SCALE (1902) This salinity scale extends from 0.0 to 400.0%. The formula followed is: = 1.805Cl + 0.03 where salinity is defined as the total amount of solid materials in grams dissolved in one kilogram of seawater.
