Conductivity/TDS (total dissolved solids) meters are scientific instruments used to measure the electrical conductivity and/or TDS of a solution. Electrical conductivity is a measure of a solution’s ability to conduct an electrical current, and is proportional to the concentration of ions in the solution. TDS is a measure of the total amount of inorganic and organic substances present in a solution in the form of ions, such as salts, acids, and sugars. Conductivity/TDS meters work by applying a small electrical current to the solution and measuring the resulting electrical conductivity. The TDS can be calculated from the conductivity measurement, or directly measured using specialized TDS sensors. Conductivity/TDS meters are commonly used in a variety of industries and applications, including water and wastewater treatment, agriculture, and food and beverage production. There are various types of conductivity/TDS meters, including benchtop meters, portable meters, and combination meters that also measure other parameters, such as temperature and pH.
