Waterproof IP65, Digital Salinity PPM Temperature Meter for Salt Water Pool and Koi Fish Pond (SALT-3050)

Doesn’t work properly ….took it into a spa outlet and they tested it and it does not read accurately

This SALT-3050 meter has made maintaining my saltwater pool much easier. The readings are quick and easy to understand, allowing me to check salinity, PPM, and water temperature in just a few seconds. It takes the guesswork out of balancing the pool and helps ensure my salt system is operating properly.The waterproof IP65 design is a great feature for poolside use, and the unit feels sturdy and well-built. The display is clear and easy to read, even in bright sunlight. Calibration was straightforward, and the results have been consistent and reliable.If you own a saltwater pool and want a simple way to monitor water conditions without constantly relying on test strips, this meter is a worthwhile investment. It has saved me time and helped keep my pool water in great shape all season long. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Buyer beware you paying 65$ for a cheap TDS (total dissolve meter) NOT and not a salinity tester NaCL. for sur it will give reading but TDS measure ALL element so reading completely inaccurate.

Finally, an easy to use accurate salinity meter. First things first... get the calibration fluid. The meter was very close to calibrated right out of the box. The calibration fluid is set to 3000 ppm. The meter read 2930 ppm. Pretty close, but in less than 1 minute I had it zeroed in on 3000. I first used Aqua Check salt test strips in an attempt to verify the salt readings on my Hayward salt/chlorine generator for my pool. I have found those strips not to be even close to accurate. The strips told me my pool was at 2650 ppm, while my salt/chlorine generator was saying 3300ppm. I ordered the calibration fluid and found the the Aqua Check strips measured only 2500 ppm in 3000 ppm test fluid. Tossed them in the trash and got this meter. So far, very happy with it.

Let’s start with the obvious it’s expensive. However, it does exactly what is intended test the salt levels in your swimming pool. There is an added benefit to this specific item and that it is already calibrated. This just means that it’s easier to use straight out of the packaging. The packaging itself is pretty cool and that I did not expect it to actually have a synthetic leather cover for the actual device. This is an addition to the actual plastic cap that goes over the prongs. I have been using it in the manner of taking some pool water with a glass about 2 inches and dipping The prongs into the water and giving it a decent swirl. So far, no issues whatsoever on the readings they are very accurate. I have been testing it with test strips and I also have a saltwater meter that runs when the pool is on. I would say if there is a deviation it is less than 250 ppm. I cannot otherwise have any complaints but it is a simple product that does a very simple thing and otherwise no complaints.
