A SUBMERSIBLE PROBE FOR MEASURING WATER SALINITY

IFF PROBE XB1-S SALINITY

Effective and easy measurement

The probe consists of a stainless-steel head with PVC sheath, a body with integrated electronics and a durable cable. The XB1-S probe measures the current between electrodes and converts it to specific electric conductivity values. The specific conductivity value shows how much dissolved salt is in the solution.

Advantages

Measuring water salinity is an important water quality parameter. Measurements obtained using the XB1-S probe mean that the optimum concentration of salt can be maintained in the water depending on the species of fish being farmed. The probe is also suitable for highly-polluted and highly-conductive water due to the four-electrode system.

  • 01 Electrodes manufactured from highly-durable carbon composite
  • 02 Protection of electrodes against growth of biological encrustation
  • 03 Also suitable for use in polluted solutions
  • 04 Minimum operating costs
  • 05 Highly durable sheath
