What is 'conductivity'? What does 'conductivity' mean?

Definition

Unit of electrical conductance for liquids (Siemens: S). It is commonly expressed in micro-siemens (μS). It is the inverse value of electrical resistance, so the smaller it is, the higher the resistance, requiring a Level Controller with higher sensitivity.
