This patent, which con-- " tains 16 claims, establishes a system and method for measuring electrical conductivity of liquids and includes an improved electrical conductivity cell. This apparatus, specifically designed for monitoring acid constituents found in the atmosphere, will be used primarily for air pollution studies. It provides the means to analyze numerous samples in the field and transmit the results to a central data processing station.
