ProfiLine Cond 3310 SET 1: Conductivity Meter for Precise Field Measurements
The ProfiLine Cond 3310 SET 1 by WTW is a professional-grade, portable conductivity meter engineered for accurate and reliable measurements in diverse field conditions. Ideal for applications in natural waters, wastewater, and industrial settings, the Cond 3310 combines advanced functionality with user-friendly operation. This meter stands out for its versatility, featuring multiple measurement capabilities including conductivity, salinity, total dissolved solids (TDS), and specific resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental and industrial monitoring tasks.
At the core of the Cond 3310’s precision is its automatic AutoRead function, which ensures repeatable and stable measurement results. This feature actively detects and indicates when the measured values stabilize, allowing for consistent and accurate readings in field applications. The meter is equipped with a backlit LCD graphic display that provides clear visibility of measured values and temperature, even in low-light conditions, while the silicon keyboard with tactile key clicks enhances usability. The keyboard is also operable with gloves, making it suitable for challenging field environments.
The meter’s waterproof 8-pin socket ensures reliable connectivity with the TetraCon® 325 sensor, even in humid or wet conditions, which is crucial for outdoor applications. Automatic temperature compensation, which can be disengaged if needed, further contributes to the accuracy of the measurements, accounting for variations in temperature that can affect conductivity readings. Additionally, the meter supports linear temperature compensation up to 10%/K and a non-linear function (nlF) for natural waters in compliance with EN 27888 standards, providing flexibility in handling different water types.
The Cond 3310 is designed to meet the needs of users who require efficient data management. It features a built-in data logger with a substantial memory capacity, allowing for the storage of up to 500 manual and 5,000 automatically recorded entries. This large data memory is invaluable for long-term monitoring projects where continuous data logging is necessary. Data can be transferred effortlessly to a computer via the waterproof USB interface, with data exported in a *.csv format for easy integration into software like Excel using the MultiLab® Importer tool.
Compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Analytical Quality Assurance (AQA) standards ensures that the Cond 3310 supports quality-controlled documentation, making it suitable for regulated industries where traceability and accuracy of measurements are crucial.
The Cond 3310 is designed to handle a variety of water quality parameters beyond just conductivity. It measures salinity, specific resistance, and total dissolved solids (TDS), providing a comprehensive overview of water quality. This versatility is complemented by a wide measurement range from 0.001 µS/cm to 1000 mS/cm, accommodating various sample types from ultra-pure water to high-conductivity solutions. The temperature measurement range from -5.0 °C to +105.0 °C adds to the meter’s adaptability for different field conditions.
The reference temperature can be selected between 20 °C and 25 °C, allowing the user to match the standard temperature used in different industries. Additionally, the meter’s cell constant is adjustable, with settings to accommodate various applications, enhancing the flexibility of the instrument.
Field measurements can be challenging due to unpredictable environmental conditions. The Cond 3310 is built to withstand such conditions with its rugged construction and waterproof design. The tactile silicon keypad is durable and designed to provide a distinct click feel even when used with gloves. The included TetraCon® 325 sensor is also field-proven, providing reliable performance across a range of conditions, from clean natural waters to more demanding industrial environments.
The ProfiLine Cond 3310 SET 1 stands out as a versatile, durable, and user-friendly conductivity meter set that meets the demands of field professionals. Its combination of reliable measurement technology, extensive data logging, flexible functionality, and robust design makes it an essential tool for anyone needing precise water quality measurements in challenging field conditions.
