I wasn't thinking about the ppm to uS ratio which is calibrated on my meter with some type of sodium solution. Rather I am interested in uS or ppm in CS . So if my meter says 15uS in my CS what should I *think* it is? I know there's is no perfect answer here given that we cannot measure the ionic component, but surely we can make some analogous understanding of ionic content from the ppm Thanks Peace and crunchy nut cornflakes to all! Regards Asif.
