TDS-3 Water Quality PPM Test Meter for Sterilizers & Water Purification Systems
Product code: D-TDS 3
The TDS-3 Water Quality PPM Test Meter is a portable digital tester designed to measure Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in water used for autoclaves, steam sterilizers, reverse osmosis systems, laboratories, and water purification equipment. Monitoring TDS levels helps healthcare facilities, dental practices, laboratories, and service technicians verify water quality and reduce the risk of mineral buildup that can affect sterilizer performance and equipment longevity. Featuring automatic temperature compensation, a built-in temperature sensor, and a convenient hold function, the TDS-3 delivers fast, accurate water quality measurements wherever testing is required.

Features
Q: Why is water quality important for autoclaves and sterilizers?
A: Poor water quality can contribute to mineral deposits, staining, scaling, and maintenance issues within sterilizers. Monitoring TDS levels helps verify that water meets facility requirements.
Q: Can this meter test distilled or reverse osmosis (RO) water?
A: Yes. The TDS-3 can be used to measure TDS levels in distilled water, RO water, purified water, and other water sources used in healthcare and laboratory environments.
Q: What does a TDS reading tell me?
A: A TDS reading indicates the concentration of dissolved minerals, salts, and other substances present in water, reported in parts per million (ppm).
Q: Is this meter suitable for dental and medical offices?
A: Yes. The TDS-3 is commonly used to verify water quality for sterilizers, instrument processing equipment, and water purification systems used in dental, medical, veterinary, and laboratory facilities.
Q: Can service technicians use this meter during preventive maintenance?
A: Yes. TDS testing is frequently performed during sterilizer inspections, maintenance visits, and water quality evaluations.
