Neptune Hydroponics EC Meter

Description

Neptune Hydroponics EC Meter with temperature compensator

The Neptune Hydroponics EC Meter is an essential tool for knowing exactly how many nutrients you are providing to your plants. This particular model stands out for its ease of use: simply insert the meter into the nutrient solution, and within seconds, the screen will display the electrical conductivity (EC) value.

With a measurement range that reaches up to 19.9 EC, this device is ideal for assessing the concentration of nutrients in your solution, allowing you to adjust the amount of nutrients you provide to your plants. Finally, its temperature compensator ensures accurate results without worrying about the thermal state of the water.

How to use the Neptune Hydroponics EC Meter

1. Remove the protective cap (you may notice white crystals around it, which will dissolve when rinsed with water).
2. Turn on the device by sliding the switch at the top.
3. Immerse the meter in the solution up to the maximum immersion level, stir gently, and wait until the display stabilizes and shows the result.
4. After use, turn off the device, clean it with water, let it dry, and replace the protective cap.

Calibration method

1. Immerse the meter up to the maximum immersion level in an EC 2.76 calibration solution.
2. Keep it there until it stabilizes, and using a small screwdriver, adjust the reading until the number 2.80 (rounded) is displayed on the screen.
