Thanks, Trem. That helps a great deal. So, as I understand it the meter senses the temperature, compensates the conductivity reading for 77 Degrees, and reads what the solution would be at 77 degrees regardless of the solution temp.
One more question: when I read the conductivity of my CS during production, The reading starts out at a peak value, then rapidly drops a few uS and then steadies out at a lower value. What is happening, and which reading is right: the initial higher reading, or the final lower reading?

The s.s. tube on the left side is the probe. So, when calibrating just let it stabilize at whatever temperature the solution is and then check the meter to make sure it reads 84.0 uS. Make sure you wait until the meter stops "hunting". Here's the calibration info on the bottle label. You'll see that 84.0 uS is the reading at 77 F. °C °F uS/cm 0 32.0 64 5 41.0 65 10 50.0 67 15 59.0 68 16 60.8 70 17 62.6 71 18 64.4 73 19 66.2 74 20 68.0 76 21 69.8 78 22 71.6 79 23 73.4 81 24 75.2 82 25 77.0 84 26 78.8 86 27 80.6 87 28 82.4 89 29 842 90 30 86.0 92 31 87.8 94 I hope this helps.
