Millisiemens per meter to microsiemens per centimeter
Type a value in mS/m to get it in µS/cm instantly.
5,000µS/cm
That's 2× as conductive as the drinking water limit, while seawater is 10× higher. That is roughly 2,500 ppm of dissolved solids.
Convert the other way: µS/cm to mS/m
What it means
How conductive is that?
The TDS estimate uses the common 0.5 factor. Real meters use 0.5 to 0.7 depending on which salts dominate.
The math
How to convert mS/m to µS/cm
To convert millisiemens per meter to microsiemens per centimeter, multiply by 10.
Example: 500 mS/m × 10 = 5,000 µS/cm.
In the other direction, 1 µS/cm = 0.1 mS/m.
