Forum: MSCTI

The MSCTI is designed to measure the electrical conductivity and temperature of solutions containing conductive ions. MSCTI is a lab instrument used to measure turbulent density and temperature variations in salt-stratified water flows, turbulent salinity flux and to determine density profiles.

  1. Why does my MSCTI have oscillations on it's outputs?

    There are two classes of oscillations as far as MSCTI goes. These are periodic variations that occur at the same frequency and phase as the AC...

  2. What Does the Phase Error Light Indicate?

    The MSCTI box has three small red lights. One of these indicates that the power is on to the box, the next indicates that an internal voltage for...

  3. What happens if the sensor is operated in air?

    Salt won't crystallize on the sensor if it is immersed so you are OK there. However, if the sensor is lifted into the air then crystallization can...

  4. How many times do I have to repeat the T and C sensors calibration?

    MSCTI should hold about 1% accuracy for 8 hours. It will actually do better, more than 24 hours for 1%. However sub-1% errors are random and occur...

  5. I would like to measure conductivity between rods or fibers in a liquid flow

    Time response for the MSCTI is very fast, roughly 800 Hz. This is limited by the electronics within the instrument. In most experiments, where fluid...

  6. What is the maximum allowed length of cable between the sensor and the power supply?

    The MSCTI is shipped with a 10 meter cable between the sensor and box. One end of this cable is glued into the sensor electronics. The other has a...

  7. What is the need to connect a MSCTI to a personal computer?

    The MSCTI produces two analog output voltages, one proportional to conductivity and one non-linearly proportional to temperature. These voltages...
