ABSTRACT:
A multiple electrode conductivity sensor generates an output to be applied to a special temperature compensation system that responds to a temperature sensor signal indicative of the sample water temperature. The temperature signal selectively operates a memory unit that contains separate water and salt correction values to be used in adjusting the measured conductivity output. The water correction value represents the conductivity of absolutely pure water at the measured temperature, and this value can be subtracted from the measured total conductivity to produce a conductivity value attributable only to salt impurities. The salt correction signal from the memory unit is then used to scale the measured salt conductivity signal at the standard reference temperature of 25.degree. C., thereby achieving a corrected salt conductivity measurement that can be added to a fixed pure water correction signal representative of the conductivity of pure water at that temperature. The sum of these values yields an adjusted output signal that accurately reflects the conductivity (or resistivity) of the pure water solution at the standard 25.degree. C. temperature.
