Overview
The Hach sensION+ 5060 Portable Platinum Conductivity Cell is a three-pole platinum conductivity cell with a polycarbonate body and built-in temperature sensor. It has a fixed 1-meter cable and MP5 connector dedicated for use with Hach sensION+ Portable Conductivity meters. The 5060 is ideal for conductivity measurements in general aqueous applications.
Design
The Hach sensION+ 5060 Portable Platinum Conductivity Cell's resilient poly-carbonate body, handle, and MP5 connecter ensure protected performance in the field. Its heavy-duty electrode handle design is optimized for field calibration and storage, as the tubes screw directly onto the electrode handle. This design provides a secure interface between the electrode and calibration/storage tube, reducing the risk of contamination.

What is Conductivity?
UPDATE : Fondriest Environmental is offering their expertise in conductivity through their new online knowledge base. This resource provides an updated and comprehensive look at conductivity and why it is important to water quality. To learn more, check out: Conductivity, Salinity and TDS. 
 
 
 Salinity and conductivity measure the water's ability to conduct electricity, which provides a measure of what is dissolved in water. In the SWMP data, a higher conductivity value indicates that there are more chemicals dissolved in the water. 
 
Conductivity measures the water's ability to conduct electricity. It is the opposite of resistance. Pure, distilled water is a poor conductor of electricity.

The prairies of Saskatchewan can be described as one of the least water-secure parts of Canada, making water quality monitoring essential for informed resource management in a region already facing water insecurity. While natural physical properties worsen some of the poor water quality conditions in the region, others are connected to land use. 
 
Having grown up spending summers on the shores of Lake Huron, Helen Baulch, an associate professor at the School of Environment and Sustainability at the University of Saskatchewan , has always been dedicated to the protection of water resources. 
 
Looking back fondly at her childhood playing along the shore, Baulch also recalls the invasion of quagga mussels during her teenage years and watching the lake change as a result.

The Seametrics Turbo Turbidity Logger is a self-cleaning turbidity sensor capable of internally logging over 260,000 data records. The sensor enables researchers, compliance officers, and contractors to monitor turbidity in various applications, from construction and dredging sites to wastewater effluent. 
 
 Due to its narrow width, this device can be deployed in a range of areas, from small well spaces to rivers and streams. The stainless steel housing and built-in wiper allow the sensor to withstand long-term deployments and reduce the need for maintenance trips. 
 
 The logger accurately records temperature and turbidity up to a depth of 50 meters.
