What is “TDS”?
TDS is an abbreviation for Total Dissolved Solids in a liquid, including
organic and inorganic substances in a molecular, ionic, or micro-granular
suspended form. TDS is generally expressed in parts per million (ppm) or
as milligrams per liter (mg/L). TDS is directly related to the quality of
water i.e., the lower a TDS figure, the purer the water. As an example,
reverse osmosis purified water will have a TDS between 0 and 10, whereas
tap water will vary between 20 and 300, depending on where you live in the
world.
The materials that constitute dissolved solids in water include materials such
as minerals, salts, anionic and cationic substances. They can also include pollutants
such as heavy metals, and other substances such as organic materials that may have
leaked into your water supply system.
What is a TDS meter and how does it work?
A TDS meter is basically an electrical charge (EC) meter
whereby two electrodes equally spaced apart are inserted
into water and used to measure charge. The result is
interpreted by the TDS meter and converted into a ppm
figure.
If the water contains no soluble materials and is pure, it will not conduct a charge and will,
therefore, have a 0 ppm figure. Conversely, if the water is full of dissolved materials, it will
conduct a charge, with the resulting ppm figure being proportional to the number of dissolved
solids. This is because all dissolved solids have an electrical charge, which allows
conduction of electrical charge between the electrodes.
