Description
EC8500 portable conductivity/TDS/salinity meter is a compact, easy-to-operate handheld instrument for measuring conductivity (EC), TDS, salinity and temperature. A protective silicone sleeve and IP57 water- and dust-tight housing make it especially suitable for field work, including harsh environments. Equipped with a BPB (Brush-resistant Platinum Black) conductivity electrode and integrated temperature sensor, it provides automatic temperature compensation (ATC) over a broad conductivity range from 0 to 200 mS/cm, with fine resolution steps and accuracy of ±1,0 % F.S. Rapid 1- to 3-point calibration, a large illuminated LCD that simultaneously shows the conductivity value and temperature plus calibration status, and built-in self-diagnosis streamline daily measurements. GLP data management stores up to 500 data groups; USB connectivity supports data export or real-time logging to a PC. A fold-out stand improves comfort for indoor use, and the BNC input accepts LabSen® series electrodes for extended applications. This complete set from manufacturer APERA Instruments comprises the EC8500 meter, conductivity electrode, three 50 ml calibration solutions (84 μS/cm, 1413 μS/cm and 12,88 mS/cm), USB cable, PC-Link software, screwdriver, manual and carrying case. Instrument dimensions are 88×170×33 mm at 313 g (1,4 kg with case).

Questions about EC8500 Portable Conductivity/TDS/Salinity Meter with GLP data management
What is this article?
EC8500 Portable Conductivity/TDS/Salinity Meter with GLP data management is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes APERA Instruments for laboratory use. It sits in Conductivity meters & cells, inside pH & electrochemistry, in Instruments de précision.
A conductivity meter and its cell measure how well a solution carries current. The cell constant is the geometry that converts conductance to conductivity, and it is calibrated with a standard. Temperature compensation matters because conductivity rises with temperature.
A pH meter is a voltmeter on a glass electrode. The voltage tracks hydrogen-ion activity, and the electrode is converted to pH only after it is adjusted with buffers of known value. Conductivity measures how well a solution carries a current, which for dilute salts tracks concentration. Dissolved oxygen and titration are further electrodes on the same idea: a sensor, a standard, and a reading that is only as fresh as the calibration. Buffer values and chemical identity sit on PubChem. Accreditation of the calibration laboratory is the field of BELAC and EURAMET.
