What Is This Tool?
This converter allows users to change electrical conductivity values from picosiemens per meter (pS/m), a unit for very low conductivity levels, to mho per meter (mho/m), a legacy unit equivalent to siemens per meter. It is useful for comparing and interpreting conductivity in various scientific and industrial contexts.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the value in picosiemens per meter (pS/m) that you want to convert.
- Select picosiemens per meter as the input unit and mho per meter as the output unit.
- Click the convert button to get the equivalent conductivity value in mho per meter (mho/m).
- Use the provided examples as references to verify your results.
Key Features
- Converts electrical conductivity from picosiemens per meter to mho per meter accurately.

- Facilitates comparisons between legacy and modern conductivity units.
- Includes practical examples to demonstrate conversion.
- Browser-based tool for easy and quick access.
Examples
- Convert 500 pS/m: 500 multiplied by 1e-12 equals 5.0e-10 mho/m.
- Convert 1000 pS/m: 1000 multiplied by 1e-12 equals 1.0e-9 mho/m.
Common Use Cases
- Monitoring ultrapure and process water quality in semiconductor and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
- Studying insulating and conductive materials in materials science and electrical engineering labs.
- Measuring seawater and natural water conductivity to assess salinity in oceanography.
- Monitoring ionic conductivity in electrolytes and treatment processes in chemical labs.
- Researching very low air or plasma conductivities in atmospheric and space-plasma science.
Tips & Best Practices
- Use the tool primarily for very low conductivity measurements as the picosiemens per meter suits low-conductivity media.
- Cross-check converted values with examples for accuracy before applying in critical work.
- Be aware that mho per meter is a legacy unit; consider modern units like siemens per meter when appropriate.
- Use sensitive instrumentation when measuring extremely low conductivities to ensure reliable data.
Limitations
- The picosiemens per meter unit is appropriate only for very low conductivity ranges and not practical for high conductivity.
- The mho per meter is a legacy unit and may be less favored than siemens per meter in some fields.
- Conversion involves a very small factor (1e-12), which may limit precision without sensitive instruments.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does picosiemens per meter measure?
- Picosiemens per meter quantifies electrical conductivity at very low levels, indicating how well a material or medium conducts electric current per unit length.
- Why convert picosiemens per meter to mho per meter?
- Converting to mho per meter, a legacy unit equal to siemens per meter, helps express very low conductivities in a more widely recognized format for comparison and interpretation.
- Can this conversion be used for all conductivity ranges?
- No, this conversion is suited for extremely low conductivity ranges. Using picosiemens per meter for high conductivity values is impractical.
