Dielectric Constant Meter

Dielectric constants has never been so easy. Simplyinsert the probe in the liquid to be measured, adjust the two controls on the front panel and read the dielectric constant from the display. The BI-870 can accurately measure in low and high dielectric solvents, including mixtures. While literature values of dielectric constants aresuitable when using pure liquids, for mixtures of liquids, values are not readily available. Also no simple equation describes mixtures using pure component values. Good zeta potential determinations of suspended colloidal particles depend on the accuracy of the dielectric constant of the liquid. Depending on the particle of interest, a number of different liquids may be used, including mixtures of various proportions creating the need for an accurate measurement of dielectric constant.
