Can I use the Salinity feature of an Orion conductivity meter to measure the salt content of my food product?
No. Salinity is a measure of the total dissolved salts in a sample based on Copenhagen seawater or equivalent as the standard. The use of the sodium (Orion 8611) or chloride (Orion 9617) electrode in conjunction with an Orion pH/ISE meter is recommended for the measurement of salt content of food. For more information on Orion pH/ISE electrodes and meters visit the product pages.
