A conductivity probe having a cylindrical body with an annular open- sided groove in which the electrodes are disposed, and a sliding cover wall for the groove biased to a position covering the groove but easily operable with one hand to slide the cover so as to open the groove. Viscous or slurried material can easily enter the groove, be trapped and confined for the conductivity measurement and then readily washed from the groove and surrounding parts for the next operation.
