Conductivity Meter

In veterinary medicine, a conductivity meter is an essential diagnostic device primarily used to measure the electrical conductivity of milk to detect subclinical mastitis in dairy cows. It works by detecting changes in the concentration of ions—such as sodium and chloride—which spike in infected udders.

Specs & features.
These tools typically feature a durable handheld body with an integrated or attached probe. The probe consists of two or four electrodes that send a small electrical current through a small sample of milk. Because these readings can be affected by the temperature of the milk, the device quickly analyzes the sample and provides a reading indicating resistance to current flow.

- Cow-side/On-farm Operation: Designed for portability, allowing veterinarians or dairy farmers to test individual udder quarters right in the barn.
- Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC): Prevents fluctuations in temperature from skewing results by automatically adjusting the readings.
- Instant Digital Readouts: Most portable meters display a quick, stable numerical value (usually within a minute).
