CONDUCTIVITY
HOW TO MEASURE pH ?
TWO MEASURES
• The higher the ions concentration is, the higher the conductivity degree is
• Acid : pH of 3 or less
Ö Use the supplier’s recommended quantity per gallon when preparing the
fountain solution.
• Contain chemical salts that brings the fountain solution to a nearly constant pH
(between 3.5 and 5.5 degrees)
PRINTING PROBLEMS
• Continue to outline the diagram with the results of pH and conductivity, until you
have a few related points on the diagram
