The Milwaukee Stick EC40 EC meter is designed to measure the EC of nutrient solutions used in agricultural and hydroponic applications.
It has a visual alarm that flashes if the measured value is above the set point.
The EC40 is built in a compact waterproof and floating housing.

DESIGN FEATURES
- Measures conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids (TDS) with automatic temperature compensation.
- Ideal range for hydroponics (0.2 to 4 mS/cm | 2 to 40 CF | 140 to 2800 ppm scale 0.7 | 100 to 2000 ppm scale 0 ,5).
- Units directly in mS/cm/CF/PPM (no conversions required).
- Factory calibrated, no continuous calibration required.
- High precision.
- Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC).
- Auto on/off function.
- Blue LED display.
- Graphite electrode in ABC + PC body.
- Battery level indicators.
- Battery life up to 3 years with approx. 10 measurements per day.
- 3 AA 1.5V batteries (included).
MAINTENANCE
EC/TDS electrodes may develop nutrient buildup over time. To minimize buildup, always rinse the probe with tap or deionized water after each use.
CONVERT EC TO TDS
The Milwaukee EC40 meter, like all Conductivity meters provide a measure of electrically charged ions in a solution and are an absolute measure of conductivity.
EC is often converted to TDS in parts per million (ppm). Different scales include 500 scale, 650 scale, and 700 scale. However, the EC40 has all direct EC/TDS/CF readings.
Its uS/cm reading can be convert approximately to TDS (ppm) as shown in the examples below.
1 uS/cm = 0.5 ppm on a 0.5 factor scale
1 uS/cm = 0.7 ppm on a factor scale of 0.70 (442)
