Description
TDS20 Value TDS pocket meter is an easy-to-use, reliable handheld instrument for checking water quality in drinking-water testing, agriculture, hydroponics, swimming pools and similar applications. Its platinum conductivity electrode ensures precise and dependable TDS readings. Measuring ranges span 0 to 100,0 ppm, 0 to 1000 ppm and 0 to 10,00 ppt, with resolutions of 0,1/1 ppm and 0,01 ppt and accuracy of ±1 % F.S. Automatic 1- to 2-point calibration with buffer recognition and automatic temperature compensation (ATC) from 0 to 50 °C simplify daily operation. The large LCD shows TDS and temperature simultaneously. Automatic shut-off after eight minutes of non-use helps extend battery life. The IP67 housing is waterproof and floatable. Four AAA batteries provide up to 1000 hours of use. Dimensions are 40 × 31 × 178 mm at 107 g; complete with case the set measures 190 × 165 × 40 mm and weighs 438 g. Supplied as a full kit from manufacturer APERA Instruments, contents include the TDS20 meter, four AAA batteries, calibration solutions 1413 μS/cm and 12,88 mS/cm (50 ml each), lanyard, carrying case and operating instructions. A two-year manufacturer warranty applies (six months on the electrode).

Questions about TDS20 Value TDS Pocket Tester
What is this article?
TDS20 Value TDS Pocket Tester is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes APERA Instruments for laboratory use. It sits in Conductivity meters & cells, inside pH & electrochemistry, in Instruments de précision.
A conductivity meter and its cell measure how well a solution carries current. The cell constant is the geometry that converts conductance to conductivity, and it is calibrated with a standard. Temperature compensation matters because conductivity rises with temperature.
A pH meter is a voltmeter on a glass electrode. The voltage tracks hydrogen-ion activity, and the electrode is converted to pH only after it is adjusted with buffers of known value. Conductivity measures how well a solution carries a current, which for dilute salts tracks concentration. Dissolved oxygen and titration are further electrodes on the same idea: a sensor, a standard, and a reading that is only as fresh as the calibration. Buffer values and chemical identity sit on PubChem. Accreditation of the calibration laboratory is the field of BELAC and EURAMET.
Which category should I open next?
The category is pH & electrochemistry. The sub-category is Conductivity meters & cells. The catalogue is Instruments de précision.
