Re: Electrical noise (was Re: a note about the hanna TDS meters)



Hello Bill,

I _think_ that they (and all inexpensive meters) use pulsing and
polarity reversal to minimize the errors. With a chip that's easy to do.

Best,

George

But how does the $15 Hanna instrument measure conductivity?  (Slap me on the wrist if this was discussed earlier and I just didn't understand.)
