The Aqua-CP is an all-in-one meter for Conductivity, TDS, pH and  Temperature.

The waterproof design makes the Aqua-CP an ideal choice for Hydroponics, Nurseries and many environmental applications.

Genuine one-touch calibration puts an end to time-consuming calibration procedures.

The Aqua-CP comes with all the accessories needed for immediate use. An optional hard carry case is also available.

Rugged and Reliable
TPS has used the latest microprocessor electronics to totally eliminate all internal and external adjustments. The result is a dramatic increase in reliability. The unit is ideal for field or factory use.

24 Character Alphanumeric Display
The two-line, 24 character display shows the pH plus Conductivity or TDS readings simultaneously. 

Alternatively, a Large Digit mode is available. This shows one reading at a time at almost double the size. To simplify use of the Aqua-CP, plain text prompts and error messages are provided. There are no codes to interpret like some other brands.

Temperature Compensation
Automatic Temperature Compensation for all parameters is provided via a temperature sensor in the Conductivity/TDS sensor.

One-touch Calibration
Calibration of the Aqua-CP could not be easier. Just place the relevant electrode into any of the pre-selected standards and press the Calibrate key. It's that simple !

The Aqua-CP displays probe condition after calibration.

All calibration information is stored in memory when the Aqua-CP is switched off, even if the battery is removed.

Low Battery Drain
The Aqua-CP will provide in excess of 70 hours of continuous use with an alkaline 9 volt battery. 

A handy battery-saver function switches the Aqua-CP off after 5 minutes if no keys have been pressed. This function can also be disabled for continuous operation.

Australian Quality
The Aqua Series is proudly designed and manufactured in Australia. Our aim is to provide you with the best quality, service and value for money. The TPS Quality System is certified in accordance with the AS/NZS ISO 9001 standard. Since 1968, TPS has built a reputation for excellent backup service that is second to none.
