Extech EC170 Salinity/Temperature Meter
The Extech EC170 Salinity/Temperature Meter is designed for direct liquid sample testing in field or lab settings. With its durable IP65-rated waterproof housing, it’s ideal for aquaculture, irrigation, and environmental water analysis. Its compact design allows for easy handling while ensuring accurate and reliable readings.
This device measures salinity from 0 to 70.0ppt across two auto-ranging scales and temperature between 0 to 50°C. The Extech EC170 automatically adjusts its measurement range to match the sample conditions, which helps reduce user error and ensures consistency across tests.
User-Friendly Display and Functions
A large dual LCD display provides clear readings for both salinity and temperature. Additional functions include Automatic Temperature Compensation, a fixed temperature coefficient, and data hold capability. The EC170 also offers automatic power off to preserve battery life and a low battery indicator for maintenance ease.
Convenient Operation and Field Readiness
This meter comes pre-calibrated with one calibration point per range, simplifying setup and operation. Built-in NaCl conductivity to TDS conversion allows for flexible use across applications. Whether for koi ponds or groundwater testing, the Extech EC170 delivers reliable results, fast.
