Details: BYK-Gardner LC 2 Conductivity Meter is designed for solvent-based coatings. Provides measurement of electrical conductivity of solvents and solvent borne paint formulations for electrostatic spray applications. When measuring conductivity, liquid builds up a specific ohmic resistance to the electric current, depending on the applied voltage. The reciprocal value is the conductivity. The measured resistance depends on the geometric arrangement of the electrodes within the measuring cell. In order to be independent of the measuring cell, the measured resistance has to be divided by the cell constant "C" which yields specific resistance. The specific resistance describes the application and performance properties of electro coating paints. The BYK-Gardner LC 2 Conductivity Meter was developed in cooperation with the VDA (Association of German Automotive Industry) following VDA standards. This conductivity meter works only with solvents and solvent based paints. The presence of water will cause electrolysis and results in false readings. Standards: ASTM D 5682; DIN 55667; ISO 15091. Technical Specifications: Measuring range: 50 kilo ohm - 19.99 Mega ohm / 20 - 0.05 microsecond; Measuring voltage: 15 V (AC/DC); Power Supply: 9 V battery; Dimensions: 105 x 55 x 145 mm (4.1 x 2.2 x 5.7 in).
