Reliable TDS Meters for Accurate Water Quality Monitoring

Track total dissolved solids (TDS) with precision using advanced digital meters for diverse industrial and commercial application.

Ensuring Water Purity with Reliable TDS Measurement

Dissolved Solids (TDS) meters are essential tools for measuring the concentration of dissolved substances in water, a key indicator of water quality across many sectors. These meters help determine the effectiveness of filtration, monitor contamination levels, and ensure water meets application-specific requirements. Whether you’re managing an industrial process, a commercial system, or a municipal water network, accurate TDS readings are vital to performance and compliance.Water Quality Instruments serves B2B clients across North America with dependable TDS meters engineered for precision, durability, and connectivity. With robust features and user-friendly interfaces, our solutions empower businesses to maintain high-quality water standards.

Core Components

Hardware Components

  • Inline TDS Sensors – Integrated directly into pipelines, these sensors enable real-time monitoring of total dissolved solids in continuous water flow systems.
    These sensors are supported by our LoRaWAN End Devices, which facilitate seamless integration in remote or industrial fluid networks.
  • Handheld TDS Testers – Compact, battery-powered meters designed for quick spot checks and on-site field measurements.
    These testers pair effectively with our Zigbee Gateways/Hubs, enabling optional wireless relay capabilities in distributed environments.
  • Digital Display Units – Wall-mounted or benchtop units that show real-time TDS readings and connect easily with control systems or alarms.
    Our Wi-Fi HaLow Gateways/Routerscomplement these display units by supporting longer-range, low-power data relays in complex layouts.
  • Multi-parameter Meters – Combine TDS analysis with other key measurements such as conductivity, pH, and temperature for holistic water quality insight.
    These versatile meters are enhanced when paired with our UHF RFID Readers, Tags & Accessories, allowing efficient tagging and identification of sample sources or devices.
  • High-Accuracy Electrodes – Engineered for durability and precision in demanding water treatment and industrial applications.
    Optimized for integration with our Industrial & Asset Monitoring Sensors, they help maintain accuracy over long-term usage under tough conditions.
