How to use a Salt Contamination Meter


Conductivity Test

Fill the syringe with 1.6 ml of high purity water.

Note: Non-pure water (up to 2µg/cm²) can be automatically offset with the gauge.

Surface Testing

Using tweezers, remove a filter paper from the pack and place it on the cleaned, non labelled side of the magnetic disc supplied.

Disperse the water from the syringe, evenly across the whole of the filter paper and remove any bubbles from under the paper.

Conductivity Testing

Place the magnetic disc, with wetted paper face down on to the area under test, pressing firmly into any contours or irregularities and start the 2 minute timer on the gauge.

Whilst waiting for the sample time to elapse, additional tests can be prepared.

Salt Measurement

After 2 minutes, carefully remove the filter paper and magnetic disc from the test surface and place on to the measurement electrodes.

Salt Measurement 

Close the lid, ensuring that the magnetic catch is fully engaged. 

The reading will automatically be displayed and stored into memory together with date and time.

Salinity and Conductivity Testing

Place the filter paper in a resealable bag (supplied), if required for further analysis.
