Description

Introducing the AquaMaster 100 ml EC 3.0 Calibration Solution. The AquaMaster 100 ml EC 3.0 Calibration Solution is a vital tool for ensuring accurate and reliable electrical conductivity measurements in your water testing or nutrient management processes. Traceable to NIST standards, this calibration solution provides precise conductivity values at various temperatures, enabling you to calibrate your EC meters with confidence. Its larger volume of 100 ml ensures long-lasting calibration accuracy, making it a cost-effective choice for frequent testing environments, whether in hydroponics, laboratory settings, or water quality analysis.

Temperature plays a crucial role in pH and EC readings, as both are highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations. As water heats up, ions become more mobile, increasing conductivity readings, while colder temperatures slow ion movement, resulting in lower readings. The calibration solution's conductivity values are provided at different temperatures, from 15C to 30C, helping you account for temperature effects during calibration. Proper calibration with temperature considerations helps prevent misinterpretations of nutrient strength or pH balance, which is vital for maintaining optimal growing conditions and plant health.

When using this calibration solution, it is important to follow proper measurement protocols. Many modern EC meters feature automatic temperature compensation (ATC), which adjusts readings based on detected temperature, simplifying the process. If your meter lacks ATC, ensure your solutions and samples are measured at a consistent temperature-ideally around 25C, the standard calibration point. Quick measurements and precise temperature control help minimise drift and ensure your readings accurately reflect the solution's true conductivity, preventing nutrient or pH miscalculations that could affect plant growth.
