HI-98308 Parts per Million Meter

If you want to test your water for usability prior to making colloidal silver, this is the unit for you. It will read microsiemens (uS/cm) which is a measure of conductivity. If your water measures less than 2 uS it is acceptable for CS production. As an additional benefit, this instrument can closely relate the reading to parts per million (PPM) of ionic/colloidal silver after you have produced it.

If the water was pure to start with, this meter will read colloidal silver directly in ppm by applying a correction factor. We have tested our colloidal silver for ppm using the atomic absorption method and this meter reads those samples within a close percent of the laboratory results.

* Rugged, Floating Waterproof Casing * Dual Level Display * Replaceable Graphite Electrode

The original DiST (Dissolved Solids Tester) was first introduced in 1986 by HANNA instruments. Since then, the measurement of Conductivity and Total Dissolved Solids has never been easier. The HI 98311 ease-of-use, in combination with its affordability, made it the standard in EC and TDS measurement. HANNA instruments continues the tradition of innovation with the HI 98311. HANNA instruments has always valued the comments and suggestions coming from our customers. For this series, they have included all the features you have asked for and more! The HI 98311 includes features such as a replaceable graphite electrode, adjustable TDS ratio, temperature in °C or °F, automatic temperature compensation with adjustable ß, battery level indicator, stability indicator, automatic shut-off and automatic calibration all in a floating, waterproof casing. This 3-in-1 tester is unmatched in EC/TDS/Temperature measurement!

HI 98311 is supplied complete with protective cap, batteries, probe removal tool and instructions.

If you want to test your water for usability prior to making colloidal silver, this is the unit for you. It will read micro-siemens (uS/cm) which is a measure of conductivity. If your water measures less than 2 uS, it is acceptable for CS production. As an additional benefit, this instrument can closely relate the reading to parts-per-million (PPM) of ionic/colloidal silver after you have produced it.

If the water was pure to start with, this meter will read colloidal silver directly in ppm by applying a correction factor. We have tested our colloidal silver for ppm using the atomic absorption method and this meter reads those samples within a close percent of the laboratory results.

We supply instructions with the proper correction factor so you will be able to easily calculate your PPM (parts per million) of colloidal silver.

This instrument is very simple to use. It is manufactured by Hanna Instruments, a leader in electronic measurement equipment.

Just insert it into your distilled water and it will read directly in uS (micro-siemens)or TDS (total dissolved solids). When testing colloidal silver water in the uS mode, the reading is also the PPM.

The HI98311 Meter comes with batteries which will provide approximately 150 hours of continuous use.

This unit is warranted to be trouble free for 1 year.

We STRONGLY recommend you purchase calibrating solution because the instrument does require recalibration when first used and from time to time. The factory includes a small screwdriver in each box so you can perform the calibration very easily. All you need is a small glass vessel to hold the solution while the meter is inserted in the solution. If using the sachet you just cut the top off and insert the meter into the sachet.
