TDS & EC (hold) hydroponic water meter
This meter is an essential tool for any hydroponic grower. It allows accurate measurement and removes the guesswork when it comes to hydroponic growing.
This meter measures the concentration of salts (TDS) by means of
Electrical conductivity (EC) and
Parts per million (PPM)
Readings are temperature compensated. Both readings simultaneously display the temperature of the water accurately in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Although the unit is pre-calibrated in the factory, manual calibration can be made if necessary.
The unit will provide 1000 hours of service before replacement is needed.
A simple dip test, in the growing liquid solution, will determine the existing levels of fertiliser in the system. Based on the reading, water can be added (If the concentration is too high) or more fertiliser can be added (if the reading is too low).
Concentration levels of salts or ppm will be crop specific.
