Designed for hydroponics, horticulture, and agriculture applications, the Milwaukee EC40 EC/TDS Nutrient Stick helps to make sure that your vegetables and plants are receiving the right amount of nutrient to promote healthy growth. Keeping EC/TDS in your target range helps to achieve better results.
EC/TDS electrodes can develop nutrient build up over time. To miminize build up, always rinse the probe in fresh tap or DI water after every use.
The Milwaukee EC40 meter, like all conductivity meters, provides a measure of electrically charged ions in a solution and is an absolute measure of conductivity.
EC is often converted to TDS in parts per million (ppm). Different scales include the 500 scale, 650 scale and the 700 scale. However, the EC40 has all the readings direct EC/TDS/CF.
Your µS/cm reading can be approximately converted to TDS (ppm) as shown in the examples below.
1 µS/cm = 0.5 ppm on a .5 factor scale
1 µS/cm = 0.7 ppm on a .70 factor scale (442)
Thank you for considering Milwaukee to help you take your results to the next level.
