Definition:
The electrical conductivity is a measure for the electrostatic rechargeableness of liquids and is usually indicated in the unit pS/m.
(1 pS = 1 pico Siemens = 10-12 Ohm-1).
Testing Method:
according to BG Chemie R 003 6/2000
Safety-relevant meaning:
Dangerously electrostatically to load can itself:
Partly the separation of materials by mechanical Separation or mechanical treatment can be accompanied by an electrostatic loading of the same.
This can jump over also by influence on neighbouring articles or persons.
In a combustible atmosphere an electrostatic unloading can work as ignition source for an explosion.
