Conductivity Data
Conductivity is the measure of the
ions in a body of water. This has a direct correlation to the amount of salts in the water. Formulas can be used to derive the amount of salts in a body of water by taking the measure of conductivity and the temperature of the body of water.
Conductivity is measured in microsiemens per centimeter, and is designated
as
(uS/cm). This is the unit that measures the amount of ions by how well an electrical current carries.
The recommended value for
conductivity is below 300
microSeimens/cm.
