Convert Microsiemens per centimetre to Microsiemens per metre
Convert Microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm) to Microsiemens per metre (µS/m) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µS/m = µS/cm × 100
About Microsiemens per centimetre
The microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm) equals 10⁻⁴ S/m and is the standard unit for drinking-water conductivity monitoring (50-800 µS/cm) and surface-water quality surveys. Regulatory thresholds for potable water are often set in µS/cm; hand-held probes for aquaculture and hydroponics report in µS/cm. 1 µS/cm = 100 µS/m = 10⁻⁴ S/m.
About Microsiemens per metre
The microsiemens per metre (µS/m) equals 10⁻⁶ S/m, the scale for freshwater lakes and rivers (100-2 000 µS/m) and weakly mineralised groundwater. It is the SI-coherent companion to the more commonly measured µS/cm: divide a µS/cm reading by 100 to obtain µS/m. 1 µS/m = 10⁻⁶ S/m = 0.01 µS/cm.
