Got a TDS/EC tester. Have some questions

Measuring PPM by electrical conductivity is an estimate. The manufacturer will base their PPM estimation on a standard salt solution. And, there are different standard solutions that have different conductivities. Depending on which standard they choose it will determine the conversion factor.

You’ll need to check with the manufacturer to verify the conversion ratio to PPM if the meter itself does not perform the conversion for you.

More info about that in post #2 above…
