Abstract

The principle of operation and metrological model of the Ukrainian primary standard of electrolytic conductivity (EC) is presented. Its original construction is based on the four electrode conductivity cell. The equations for calculating the cell constant from its dimensions, and the budget of the type B uncertainty from estimated unknown systematic errors are given. Methods: how to minimize these errors and the uncertainty are proposed and implemented. Obtained results are given and successfully verified in International Key Comparisons.
