The Master Science Mid-Range TDS Tester is a pen-style meter for everyday dissolved-solids checks in tap water and clean water. It covers 5 to 1000 ppm in 1 ppm steps, which suits drinking water, aquarium water and general process water.
Operation is kept to the basics: one button calibrates the meter against the standard you choose, a hold key freezes the reading, and the Master Science Mid-Range TDS Tester switches itself off after eight idle minutes. When the sensor wears out, only the electrode module is replaced.

Applications
The Master Science Mid-Range TDS Tester is intended for general water checks such as:
- Tap water and clean water
- Aquariums
- General industrial water checks
Common Problems This Tester Solves
Routine water checks often go wrong for simple reasons.
- Readings drift with water temperature:: automatic compensation corrects the value between 0 and 50°C.
- The number changes before it is written down:: the hold key keeps it on the display.
- Batteries run flat in a drawer:: the tester shuts off by itself after 8 minutes.
- A worn sensor means buying a new meter:: only the electrode module needs replacing.
