This water quality tester is designed to measure various parameters related to water quality. Here's what it measures:
1. **TDS (Total Dissolved Solids):** Measures the concentration of dissolved solids in water, expressed in parts per million (ppm). The measurement range is from 0 to 200,000 ppm.
2. **pH (Potential of Hydrogen):** Measures the acidity or alkalinity of water. The pH measurement range is from 0.01 to 14.00 pH units.
3. **Salinity:** Measures the salt concentration in water. It can measure the salinity of both edible salt and seawater. The measurement range for food salinity is from 0.00% to 25.00%, and for seawater salinity, it ranges from 10.1 to 200.0 parts per thousand (ppt).
4. **EC (Electrical Conductivity):** Measures the ability of water to conduct electrical current, which correlates with the concentration of dissolved salts and minerals. The EC measurement range is from 0 to 200,000 microsiemens per centimeter (µS/cm).
5. **Temperature:** Measures the temperature of the water. The temperature measurement range is from 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F).
Additionally, it features automatic temperature compensation to ensure accurate readings despite temperature variations. The device includes a large backlit LCD screen for clear display of measurement results in various lighting conditions. It also has an auto power-off function to save battery life after 5 minutes of inactivity.
This tester is suitable for a variety of applications where water quality monitoring is essential, such as in laboratories, aquaculture, hydroponics, swimming pools, and environmental monitoring.
