Frequently asked questions
Common questions about VERISPEC from 3G Electric.
What concentration ranges are available for VERISPEC conductivity calibration solutions?
VERISPEC offers conductivity calibration solutions in five standard concentrations: 50 µS/cm, 250 µS/cm, 447 µS/cm, 1,413 µS/cm, and 50,000 µS/cm. These cover low, medium, and high conductivity ranges typically encountered in aqueous samples. The 1,413 µS/cm standard is commonly used as a single-point calibration for many meters, while the 50 µS/cm and 50,000 µS/cm options are suitable for two-point or multi-point calibrations. All solutions are supplied in 500 mL plastic bottles and are lab-grade.
Are VERISPEC conductivity standards traceable to national standards?
VERISPEC conductivity calibration solutions are manufactured to be traceable to NIST or equivalent reference standards, ensuring that the certified conductivity values are accurate and reproducible. This traceability is documented on the product datasheet or certificate of analysis provided with each bottle. Users should verify the specific traceability statement for each SKU, as the brand does not publicly list all certifications. For ISO 17025 accredited calibrations, users may need to cross-check with their quality system requirements.
What is the shelf life of VERISPEC conductivity calibration solutions?
VERISPEC conductivity calibration solutions typically have a shelf life of 12 to 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored properly. The exact expiration date is printed on the bottle label. To maintain stability, store the bottles sealed at room temperature (15–25°C) away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Once opened, the solution should be used within a few months to avoid contamination or evaporation that could alter the conductivity value. Discard any solution that shows visible particulate or discoloration.
Can VERISPEC conductivity standards be used for calibrating inline process sensors?
Yes, VERISPEC conductivity standards can be used to calibrate inline process conductivity sensors, provided the sensor's measurement range matches the standard's concentration. For example, a 1,413 µS/cm standard is suitable for sensors monitoring water quality in reverse osmosis systems, while a 50,000 µS/cm standard may be used for high-conductivity applications like chemical concentration monitoring. Ensure the sensor is clean and dry before immersion, and follow the manufacturer's calibration procedure. The liquid form allows direct immersion of the sensor probe.
What is the chemical composition of VERISPEC conductivity solutions?
VERISPEC conductivity calibration solutions are primarily composed of deionized water (CAS 7732-18-5) with dissolved potassium chloride (CAS 7447-40-7) for most concentrations. The specific solute depends on the target conductivity: lower concentrations (e.g., 50 µS/cm) may use very dilute KCl, while higher concentrations (e.g., 50,000 µS/cm) use a higher proportion of KCl. The solutions are lab-grade, meaning they meet purity standards suitable for calibration but are not certified for pharmaceutical or food-grade applications unless specified. No preservatives or stabilizers are added.
