Do Anti-Foulant Devices affect the conductivity cell calibration?
Anti-Foulant Devices have no effect on the calibration, because they do not affect the geometry of the cell in any way. The Anti-Foulant Devices are mounted at either end of the conductivity cell. For an in-depth explanation of how Sea-Bird makes the conductivity measurement, see Conductivity Sensors for Moored and Autonomous Operation.
