The TDS value in aqueous solutions is directly proportional to conduc‑
tivity. The ratio between the two parameters depends on the solution
and usually it is set to a factor of 0.5 (corresponding to a solution of
CaCO
3
). This means that 1
µ
S/cm is equal to 0.5 mg/L (ppm) of TDS.
For manual temperature compensation, refer to the following chart:
For instance, the TDS values of the calibration solutions at 25 °C are
1382 mg/L or 12.41 g/L when using
HI7032
or
HI7036
, respectively.
At 20 °C, the values are 1251 mg/L or 11.24 g/L, respectively.
With the solutions at 30 °C, the values are 1515 mg/L or 13.61 g/L,
respectively.
