A TDS meter is used to check that the pure water coming out of your cleaning system
is as pure as it should be and lets you know when it's time to replace the mixed bed resin
that's in your DI bottle or the filters in your RO system, or both.
Your TDS meter will check the quality of the water going into your water cleaning system in ppm
(parts per million) and also, that what's coming out after the process is actually pure water or as
near to it as you can get.
Inline TDS Meter
An inline TDS meter is exactly what it sounds like. It's a TDS meter that is fitted inline, to show you the
quality of the water before it's entered your cleaning system and how pure it is after it's been cleaned. You
do need to use it regularly, to let you know when your pure water is becoming less than pure. Then you can
adjust your water production system, whether it's a deionization system, a reverse osmosis system or a
combination of both.
Handheld TDS Meter
A handheld TDS meter is much more versatile to use than an inline model, for obvious reasons, and it will
fit into your pocket much in the same way as a pen or disposable lighter. A handheld TDS meter is about the
same length as a pen and approximately the same width and thickness as a disposable lighter.
It does the same job as an inline TDS meter but many of the handheld TDS meters have loads more
functions, such as checking the temperature of your water.
Your handheld TDS meter can also demonstrate to your customers, the difference between the pure water
that you're using to clean their windows, and the water that they would be using if they were to
clean their own windows using their own tap water.
Get them to run some of their tap water into a clean glass and test it for them, with your meter. Then empty
the glass and fill it with some of your pure water to test..... point proved!
Get them to also check any bottled drinking water they've bought and they'll be surprised at it's
purity, compared with the pure water you're using. Ask them how much it would cost them to try and clean
their windows with "less than pure" bottled drinking water?
Also, how many times (since you started cleaning windows) have you been thirsty on a hot summers day and
helped yourself to a drink from a customers stand pipe? Next time you're near any of the stand pipes you've
ever had a drink from, test the water coming out of it with your TDS meter, to see what rubbish you've been
drinking.
Is the pure water you produce, for cleaning windows, healthier for you to drink than bottled water? If you
think it is, then why waste any more money buying bottled water to take to work, when you can drink a better
product that you already take to work every day!
