How to - TDS Meter Instructions

The TDS-3 Meter features a robust design and is an ideal meter for any water testing application, including testing the amount of total dissolved solids in water that is being used for coffee and food service. Watch the Instructions Above

Transcript:
"Hi! Cameron here, today I’d like to share with you how you can test your total dissolved solids (TDS) at home, using our TDS 3 TDS meter.
Before we begin, it’s important to understand what TDS actually is. TDS is the calculated number of mobile ions, dissolved salt and minerals, that can be found inside your water source. They give an overall indication of the health of your water.

To begin, you’ll need to rinse out your canister around three to four times to ensure there’s no other contaminants inside the canister. Once you’ve done that, simply take the cap off the TDS meter, and push the ON button. Insert the TDS meter into the water and swirl it around for roughly 10 seconds. This ensures all of the water has gone around the receiver, and that it’ll give you an accurate result. After 10 seconds, push the HOLD button at the very top. That will then hold the TDS reading and allow you to read the result outside of the water. So the TDS here is now showing 116 parts per million, and that will hold there for 20 seconds so you can write that down.

What does ppm mean??? I thought we need tds. Are they the same thing are do you have to convert ppm to figure out your tds.

[tommyeaves]

So what does that reading (#) mean? You're leaving out the important part!

What does the NUMBER Mean as far as qualityof my water

[davidmazza]

I purchased this believing that it measured salt water content in my fish aquarium? The instructions show nothing for salt content, ph, titrates etc? help

[jazura]

Ridiculous video. It does not say what number mean it is necessary to change the filter. THAT is what people want to know.

Are there any inexpensive ones that have temp compensation? Without temp compensation they are pretty bad going all over the place in readings.

I run my tap water through a boatload of filters and 5 lbs of charcoal same reading before and after mabey reduced by 5

My mates tried Tap water 343 so 1 peed in glass 135 they say do u want cup of tea, !!

My tedious meter seems to be jumping from 70 PPM to 140 when I dip into water but it used to work fine before stayed at one spot. I wasn't given the calibration solution either. What to do?

[CR-pfes]

didnt give any info as what reading should be- useless video
