High Quality EC Solutions (20 Pack)

EC Calibration Solutions works with both ECO EC Meter and PRO EC Meter models. Includes 20 individual ready-to-use liquid calibration packets. Each packet contains 20 ml of 1000 ppm/2mS solution.

What is EC Calibration Solution?

EC solution is a standardized liquid with a known electrical conductivity (EC) or total dissolved solids (TDS) value. Used to calibrate EC/TDS meters, ensuring they provide accurate measurements of the concentration of dissolved salts and minerals in a solution.

 

EC (Electrical Conductivity) calibration solutions are essential tools in maintaining the accuracy of EC meters used in various industries such as agriculture, hydroponics, aquaculture, and environmental monitoring. These solutions are typically composed of a precise concentration of dissolved salts and minerals in water, giving them a known and stable electrical conductivity value. This known value serves as a reference point against which EC meters can be calibrated.

 

In practical terms, EC meters measure the ability of a solution to conduct electrical current, which correlates with the concentration of dissolved ions, primarily salts. By immersing the EC meter probe into an EC calibration solution of known conductivity, users can adjust the meter to accurately reflect this standard value. This calibration ensures that subsequent measurements taken by the EC meter are reliable and consistent, allowing for precise monitoring and management of nutrient levels or salinity in various applications.

What is it for?

• Accurate Readings: Regular calibration is essential to maintain the accuracy of your EC/TDS meter. Over time, meters can drift, leading to incorrect readings. Calibration corrects this drift.
• Optimal Plant Growth: In hydroponics and fertigation, accurate EC/TDS readings help you maintain the ideal nutrient concentration for healthy plant growth.
• Quality Control: In various industries, EC/TDS measurement is crucial for quality control of water and solutions.

Why Do I Need It?

• You Own an ECO or PRO EC/TDS Meter: Our solution is specifically designed to work with these models.
• Your Meter Readings Are Inconsistent: If your readings seem off, calibration is the first step to troubleshoot.
• You Haven't Calibrated in a While: Manufacturers recommend regular calibration (e.g., monthly or quarterly) for best results.
• You Want to Optimize Plant Health: Accurate nutrient management is key to maximizing yields.

How to Calibrate Your EC/TDS Meter:

1. Turn on your meter and switch to mS mode (follow your meter's specific instructions).
2. Open one calibration solution packet.
3. Submerge the meter's tip into the solution.
4. Press and hold the TEMP/CAL button until the display flashes.
5. Use the arrow keys to adjust the reading to 2.0.
6. Confirm the calibration (press ON/OFF or POWER/ENTER, depending on your model).
