Calibration solution for a Hanna TDS meter

[DevIouS]

Anyone know a local place that carries it?

Thanks in advance....

Find somebody with another TDS meter that's getting 0ppm from their RODI and calibrate it that way. All you're going to get is purified water and pay $ for it.

Thanks for the reply.
I don't really catch what you're saying....:scratchch
I have to change out the batteries, & as per the manual the unit wall have to be calibrated.

I couldn't borrow another TDS out here. I'm a reef "loner" around my way.

If you can wait a week, take it to the swap. I'm sure someone can bring you a small tupperware full of RO water.

B -
This is the meter I have.
In the manual, it states to calibrate in solution. Is the solution just RO water?
"hold the button on top & dip it in the solution.":scratchch

I think I just calibrated my meter using distilled water- which is supposed to be 0ppm. Thats all you are really looking for- a solution that is 0ppm and make sure your meter reads 0ppm when you dip it in the solution. If it isn't then you make the calibrations.
