The SpectraPureŽ Push-to-Test Button Electronic Purity Monitor measures electrical conductivity of water and indicates when the value is above or below an internally set level. This association can be used to gauge the relative performance of an RO or DI system in removing contaminants from the water. While this does not detect the presence of Silica or organic contaminants, it can be used to imply the level of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) contained as disassociated ionic species in the water.
The monitor has eight (8) internal settings for electrical conductivity, each associated with a level of water purity. With the appropriate setting, a user can determine when the performance of a water purification system has degraded to point where replacement of deionization cartridges or RO membranes is required. The monitor operates on a 9 volt alkaline type battery (included).
