– Digital Signal Processing). The conductivity detector exhibits outstanding thermal stability and thus guarantees reproducible measuring conditions. The IC Conductivity Detector can only be used together with the IC instru- ment. The software MagIC Net automatically recognizes the IC Conduc- tivity Detector and checks its functional readiness.
