EC meter MW301 PRO Milwaukee

EC meter MV301 PRO Milwaukee is a professional portable conductivity tester for measuring electrical conductivity in agriculture and for water quality control.

MW 301, the professional Milwaukee conductivity meter

The Milwaukee MW301 model is an EC meter PRO , i.e. an instrument designed for measuring Electrical Conductivity.

Small in size, ergonomic, simple and quick to calibrate, it satisfies the growers' needs for equipment suitable for the complex cultivation environments found in the agriculture and hydroponics fields.

Some of its features include:

1. Quick and easy to read results;
2. Large digital LCD display;
3. Conductivity/TDS probe with DIN connector and 1m cable;
4. About 300 hours of battery life in continuous operation.
5. Quick and easy calibration.

In the agricultural field, the conductivity of the soil is checked before applying fertilizers to determine the needs, but also afterwards to verify the effectiveness.

In hydroponic crops, however, the measurement of the EC is essential to determine the concentration of fertilizer in the nutrient solution. Once this value is established, the nutrient formula can be adjusted for optimal plant growth.

The MW 301 EC tester, therefore, allows you to optimize fertilizer dosages and minimize operating costs.

How the EC tester MW 302 PRO works

Here's how this Milwaukee conductivity meter works:

1. Insert the battery in the special compartment on the back of the instrument;
2. Connect the conductivity probe to the device by aligning the pins of the connector with the socket on the tester;
3. Calibrate the instrument before using it, immersing the probe in the calibration solution and turning the calibration trimmer up to the value “1.4 mS;
4. Turn on the device and immerse the tip (4cm) of the EC probe into the sample to be measured.
5. Shake and wait for the reading to stabilize.
6. After each measurement turn off the instrument and clean the probe well with distilled water or ethyl alcohol.
