Conductivity is a physical property of water that indicates how well it conducts electrical current. It is typically measured in microsiemens per centimeter (µS/cm) or millisiemens per centimeter (mS/cm).
In pharmaceutical water treatment, conductivity is an important parameter that reflects the overall concentration of dissolved ions in the water. The higher the conductivity, the greater the concentration of dissolved minerals and salts in the water.
Conductivity is often used as an indicator of water quality, especially concerning the amount of dissolved solids or the hardness of the water. In pharmaceutical water treatment, conductivity can be used to monitor the efficiency of softening processes or to detect changes in water composition that may indicate potential contamination or malfunction in the water treatment system.
