ppm measurement techniques?

1998-07-28 Thread M. G. Devour
We could save some money and get quicker results if some of us could do our own ppm testing. Here's a couple of ideas I'd like to discuss and, hopefully, refine enough to make work. The first idea is to evaporate a quantity of CS to be tested, say 100 ml (1/10th of a liter), and weigh the

Hi all. One of the tools we have available to us is the total dissolved solids meters from Hanna Instruments. A couple of models have been looked at so far, the TDS-1 and the DIST-WP-1. We talked a while back about trying to make a calibration standard for these meters using salt in water.

Okay. Questions were raised about silver source, the light bulb (or lack thereof), and using 4 batteries instead of 3. I explained my reasons for not being concerned about the minor impurities in the silver. I don't know if what I said made enough sense. I believe we can test the results with
