When one talks of megOhms (MOhms) and microSeimens (uS) in relation to water quality, one is usually referring to specific resistivity and specific conductivity, which are the inverse of each other.
18 MOhm water is extremely pure, and will only stay that way for a very short time. Indeed it is losing resistance from the moment it is made, gaining impurities from the air and vessel in which it resides. 18 MOhm = 0.0556 uS 10 MOhm = 0.1 uS 1 MOhm = 1.0 uS 100 KOhm = 10 uS When referring to the specific resistivity and conductivity.

Subject: CS>Conversion table Hi List, Does anyone out there, know the conversion rate between us/cm and megohms? Lately, Ive been reading about lab grade DW, the figure they give for "critical procedures" is 18.2 Mw, and I would like to know just how my home DW rates against this. I've found that 0.1 us/cm = 10 Mw, but I'm unsure about any conversion rate. Any ideas? TIA Rod Stevenson --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
