Why Conductivity Monitoring Matters in Liquid Cooling

Conductivity directly reflects the ion concentration and purity of a coolant. Rising conductivity signals contamination ingress, additive depletion or corrosion byproducts building up in the loop — all of which accelerate metal corrosion, electrochemical migration and leakage-current risks in cold plates and manifolds.

For data center liquid cooling pipelines, industry standards such as T/GDSS 021-2026 require conductivity to stay below 10 μS/cm with fluctuation under 2 μS/cm after system flushing. Continuous online monitoring with the BS-EC350 makes this acceptance criterion measurable at any moment, not just during commissioning.

How to Select the Right Range

Range selection follows the expected conductivity of your coolant:

Selection tip: For data center liquid cooling loops built to the <10 μS/cm acceptance criterion, choose BS-EC350A so that both the limit value and the 2 μS/cm fluctuation band resolve clearly within the measuring range.

Typical Applications

The BS-EC350 works alongside the BS-PHS276 Liquid-Cooled pH Sensor, turbidity sensors and theBT8500 liquid particle counter to form a complete coolant cleanliness monitoring package, all connectable to multi-parameter controllers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the BS-EC350 Liquid-Cooled Conductivity Sensor used for?
The BS-EC350 series is a conductivity sensor dedicated to liquid cooling systems. It continuously monitors the conductivity of coolants in data center liquid cooling, energy storage and high-power electronic cooling applications, tracking ion concentration and coolant purity to provide early warning of contamination, corrosion risk and coolant degradation.
What measuring ranges are available for the BS-EC350?
Five versions are available: BS-EC350A (0-20 μS/cm), BS-EC350B (0-200 μS/cm), BS-EC350C (0-1000 μS/cm), BS-EC350D (0-2000 μS/cm) and BS-EC350E (2-20000 μS/cm), with cell constants K=0.01, K=0.1 and K=1 respectively. All share ±1.5%FS accuracy and PT1000 temperature compensation.
What media is the BS-EC350 compatible with?
The BS-EC350 is compatible with pure water, deionized water, and PG25/EG25 (propylene glycol / ethylene glycol) coolants commonly used in liquid cooling systems. Its 316L stainless steel body with anti-polarization technology ensures stable long-term measurement.
What output signals does the BS-EC350 provide?
The BS-EC350 offers optional 4-20mA analog or RS485 digital output with Modbus RTU protocol, powered by 18–27 VDC (models A/B), 9–27 VDC (models C/D) or 12–24 VDC (model E). A 5 m cable is standard, extendable to 10 m.
How do I select the right BS-EC350 range for data center liquid cooling?
Industry standards such as T/GDSS 021-2026 require coolant conductivity below 10 μS/cm (with fluctuation under 2 μS/cm) after flushing data center liquid cooling pipelines. The BS-EC350A (0-20 μS/cm, K=0.01) covers this range with the best resolution; BS-EC350B (0-200 μS/cm) suits general coolant monitoring, while models C/D/E handle higher-conductivity glycol mixtures and industrial cooling media.
