Compensation (ATC) ensures accuracy in variant temperatures (0-50.0˚C) LARGE CLEAR LCD with DUAL Display of temp./ppt, and REMINDERS of completed calibrations and stable readings Up to 1000 hours continuous operation time powered by AAA batteries The details

Review: Easy to set up, but would have concerns around accuracy - I found the device easy to calibrate as per the instructions. You need to be careful as they are generic instructions, so some steps are only relevant to other devices. I found temperature reading to be inaccurate. I have a validated infra-red thermometer and the salinity meter initially reads 4.5c above the actual temperature. If I keep it in the liquid I'm measuring for a few minutes, it eventually comes down close to the actual temperature, but I would expect it to give an instant accurate reading. It's well-built overall, but the lack of accuracy in temperature would lead me to question the accuracy of the salinity reading.
Review: Très précis - Très bien fait facile
