The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) measures the conductivity of water in compliance with ASTM D1125. Water is an invaluable resource that industrial businesses must treat and inspect to ensure that its purity and contents align with the requirements of its intended use. Our chemistry experts work diligently to examine water samples to determine if they’re in accordance with our clients’ needs and industry standards.
What is ASTM D1125?
ASTM D1125 outlines the standard procedure for measuring water’s electrical resistivity and conductivity. During the procedure, technicians allow an electrical current to pass through a water sample, allowing them to observe the sample’s resistance to the current. The information gathered from the test method is instrumental in the processes needed to inspect the quality of drinking water and water used in water treatment systems.

The information obtained during our ASTM D1125 can help clients make informed decisions regarding their water samples and water processing strategies.
Why is It Important to Test the Electric Conductivity of Water?
Water conductivity is directly related to salt and minerals in the water. By monitoring the water’s conductivity, trained professionals can learn important information about potential contaminants in a water sample or system. Electric conductivity water tests such as those outlined in ASTM D1125, help businesses and agencies do the following:
- Improve water treatment practices
- Prevent corrosion caused by excessively salty water
- Identify and resolve water pollution
- Ensure that a water source is ideal for manufacturing processes
