Power Off 

Manual or Automatic (8 minutes after 
last key pressed) 

Sensor Type 

Order Code: HL102ELEC 

Power Requirements 

2×1.5V "AAA" Batteries 

Dimensions 

185(L)×40(Dia.)mm 

Weight 

100g 

 

Calculation of TDS conversion factor: 

 

To determine the TDS conversion factor use the following formula: 

 

 

Factor= 

 

 

 

Where: 

Actual TDS: value from the high purity water and precisely weighed NaCl or KCL reagent. 

Actual Conductivity: the measured conductivity value. 

 

For example: 

Dissolve 64 grams of potassium chloride reagent in 1L distilled water. If its conductivity value is 

100mS/cm, then TDS conversion factor is 0.64. 

Actual TDS

 

Actual Conductivity @ 25ºC
