Milwaukee Sharp EC Meter – Pocket EC Meter for Nutrient Solution in Culture

Frequently asked questions

• What EC range does the Milwaukee C66 cover?

  It measures electrical conductivity from 0.00 mS to 10.00 mS and displays the value on its LCD screen. It includes automatic temperature compensation, so readings stay reliable even if the water is colder or warmer.

• How do I use the C66 meter?

  Remove the probe's protective cap, turn the meter on with the ON button, and submerge it in the liquid, preferably in a cup for a more stable reading. Wait a few seconds for temperature compensation and turn it off with the OFF button when you're done.

• How do I calibrate it?

  Unscrew the top cap and dip the probe up to 2 cm into an EC calibration solution, with 1413 µS and 5000 µS being the recommended options. Adjust the reading with the included screwdriver; for the 1413 µS solution, the adjustment should read 1.41.

• What care does it need after each use?

  Maintenance is very simple: dry the electrode with a soft cloth after each measurement. Put the protective cap back on to prevent damage to the probe when you store it.

• Can the probe be replaced?

  Yes, the C66 has a replaceable probe with reference MA73076. Being able to swap it out greatly extends the meter's lifespan and saves you from having to buy a new device.

• Is it suitable for both home and professional use?

  Yes, it's a portable, water-resistant tool suitable for agriculture, hydroponics, fish farming, aquariums, swimming pools, laboratories, water treatment, food industry, and education. Its compact design makes it just as handy in the field as in the lab.
