TDS Water Tester Instruction Manual

What is TDS:

.. is an abbreviation for “Total dissloved solids” and indicates the sum of the dissolved solids (minerals, metals, salts, foreign substances, etc.) in the water.

The unit ppm (parts per million) – parts of a million. The lower the value, the better the body’s cells absorb the water. The higher the value, the more likely it is that there are impurities in the water that prevent water absorption into the cells and thus pose a health risk.

If you measure tap water, you get values between 200 and 700 ppm. 8 ppm (pure water) is optimal. It is better absorbed by the cells and cleanses the body accordingly of toxic substances that it must and wants to excrete. I change filters of reverse osmosis systems from 80 ppm.

Possible applications:

* Testing the water hardness and efficiency of your water purification system.
* Testing of aquarium water
* Tap water testing

Functions:

On/Off button turns the device on or off.

The HOLD function saves the measurement. This allows you to read them after removing the TDS from the liquid.

TEMP: Shows the water temperature

Operation/Measurement:

1. Peel off the black protective cap
2. On/Off button press “000” is displayed
3. Dip into the water to the mark and wait for a stable display (10-30 sec.)
4. Press the hold button and the result is stored legibly. Remove from the water.
5. Press the on/off button to switch off
6. Shake off and wipe off any residual water from the appliance, replace the protective cap.

Please note:

* Do not use in water above 50° C.
* Do not dip deeper than the end of the protective cap
* The device is adjusted and does not need to be adjusted
* Do not store the device in the sun or at high temperatures
* The battery compartment is located at the top of the head of the device
