Description
The TQC Sheen Elite Conductivity, TDS, Salinity and Temperature Meter is a compact handheld instrument designed for accurate measurement of key liquid parameters in laboratory and field environments. With the ability to measure conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity and temperature, this versatile meter supports a wide range of testing applications including coating inspection, water quality analysis and environmental monitoring.
The instrument is frequently used as part of Bresle surface salt contamination testing, where it helps determine the concentration of soluble salts extracted from surfaces prior to coating application. By providing fast and reliable measurements, the Elite Meter helps ensure that surface preparation meets required cleanliness levels before protective coatings are applied.
Its ergonomic design, intuitive controls and replaceable sensor technology make the meter easy to operate while delivering consistent and repeatable results in demanding industrial environments.

Why Conductivity Measurement is Important in Bresle Testing
In coating inspection, the presence of soluble salts on metal surfaces can lead to premature coating failure, blistering or corrosion. During a Bresle test, salts are extracted from the surface using a test patch and solution. The resulting liquid is then analysed using a conductivity meter.
The Elite Conductivity Meter measures the electrical conductivity of this solution, which correlates with the concentration of dissolved salts. This allows inspectors and quality control professionals to determine whether the surface meets the acceptable contamination limits before coating application.

How It Works
- Turn on the meter and select the required measurement mode (conductivity, TDS, salinity or temperature).
- Rinse the sensor with clean water before testing to prevent cross-contamination.
- Immerse the sensor into the liquid sample or Bresle extraction solution.
- Allow the reading to stabilise while the instrument automatically compensates for temperature.
- Record the measured value displayed on the screen.
- Rinse the sensor after use and store the meter with its protective cap.
The integrated sensor and automatic temperature compensation ensure accurate and repeatable measurements during routine liquid analysis.
