Follow below steps to measure TDS level in water at your home.
#Step 1 – Weigh the evaporating dish in milligrams and make sure that the dish is completely empty, free from any kind of particles. Note this measurement as “A” and come back to it after all the steps have been completed.
#Step 2 – Take the stirring stick and vigorously stir the sample of water in the sterilized beaker. You need to agitate the liquid so that the particulate matter present in matter gets evenly distributed.
#Step 3 – Take the pipette and collect 50ml of the stirred water. Please note that even while collecting the water, you have to continue stirring the liquid.
#Step 4 – Extract water from the pipette and pass it on to the filter paper 3 times. There will be some sediment left behind in the filter paper.
#Step 5 – If you see any particles in the filter paper, transfer it to the evaporating dish.
#Step 6 – Wait for the filtrate (particles) to completely dry.
#Step 7 – Once the filtrate on the evaporating dish is dry, weight the evaporating dish again (with the filtrate) and call it “B”.
#Step 8 – Measure the TDS level by subtracting B from A.
To check TDS level, use the formula: TDS = [(A-B)*1000]/ml
