1. Factor
The conductivity to ppm TDS conversion factor. Multiply conductivity by this factor to get ppm TDS for the type of TDS reading needed.
2. 442
A formulation that most closely represents the conductivity to ppm relationship, on average, for naturally occurring fresh water.
Factor = Actual TDS / Actual Conductivity @ 25°C.
