Product Overview
This 12880 µS/cm conductivity standard is engineered for laboratories requiring exacting calibration of conductivity meters and probes. Formulated to deliver consistent performance at 25°C, it adheres to strict analytical-grade purity standards, ensuring minimal variability and maximum reliability in measurements. The solution is prepared using ultra-pure reagents and deionized water, eliminating contaminants that could skew results. Its stable composition resists degradation over time, making it ideal for frequent use in research, industrial, and educational settings. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing to confirm its stated conductivity value, with traceability to international reference materials. The 1 L packaging provides ample volume for repeated calibrations while maintaining cost efficiency. Whether used for routine maintenance or critical experiments, this standard guarantees precision, helping users achieve accurate, reproducible data without compromise.
FAQs
1. How long does this conductivity standard remain stable after opening?
When stored in its original container at room temperature and sealed tightly after each use, the solution maintains its specified conductivity for up to 12 months. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prevent evaporation or contamination.
2. Can this standard be used for calibrating both benchtop and portable conductivity meters?
Yes, the 12880 µS/cm value is compatible with most laboratory-grade conductivity meters, including benchtop and handheld models. Always verify your instrument’s calibration range to ensure compatibility with the standard’s concentration.
3. What is the shelf life of an unopened bottle of this conductivity standard?
An unopened bottle has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture, provided it is stored under recommended conditions (15–25°C, away from moisture and light). Check the label for the exact expiry date.
4. Are there any precautions to take while handling this standard?
While non-hazardous, it is advisable to wear gloves and safety goggles to prevent skin or eye contact. In case of spillage, rinse the affected area with water and clean the surface with a lint-free cloth to avoid residue buildup.
5. Does this standard require temperature adjustment before use?
The standard is calibrated for use at 25°C. For accurate results, allow the solution to equilibrate to this temperature before calibration, especially if stored in cooler or warmer environments. Use a thermometer to confirm the temperature.
