HI10480

Description

The HI10480 is a digital pH electrode with built-in temperature sensor. This application specific electrode is designed for measuring pH in wine and must. Measuring the pH of wine is a critical step to ensure the quality of a final product. This electrode features a built-in microchip that stores sensor type, serial number, and calibration information. It also features a double junction reference, Clogging Prevention System (CPS) technology, glass body, and spherical tip. This probe features a 3.5 mm connector designed exclusively to be used with Hanna Instruments edge® Tablet Meters.

•  3.5 mm Connector

Built-In Microchip
•  The built-in microchip stores sensor type, serial number and calibration information including date, time, offset, slope, probe condition and buffers used.
•  This information is automatically retrieved by edge® once the electrode is plugged in.
•  The ability to transfer information allows for hot swapping of probes without having to recalibrate.
•  All pH measurements are performed within the electrode and transferred digitally to the meter.
•  This overcomes any noise issues associated with the traditional high impedance analog measuring system.
•  Electrical noise can be generated from a built in temperature sensor and while working in a humid environment.

  Spherical Glass Tip
•  The spherical shaped tip design allows for a wide area of contact with the sample.
•  This permits a faster electrode response with a higher degree of stability.
•  The HI10480 utilizes a low temperature (LT) glass formulation that has a resistance of around 50 megaohms at 25°C.
•  As the temperature of the glass decreases in the sample, the resistance of the LT glass will approach that of GP glass.
•  If using GP glass, the resistance would increase above the optimum range, resulting in increased impedance and ultimately affecting the measurement.
•  The HI10480 is suitable to use with samples that measure from 0 to 80°C.

  CPS Sleeve Junction
•  CPS™ (Clogging Prevention System) is an innovation in electrode technology.
•  Conventional pH electrodes use ceramic junctions that clog quickly when used in wine. When the junction is clogged, the electrode does not function.
•  CPS™ technology utilizes the porousness of ground glass coupled with a PTFE sleeve to prevent clogging of the junction.
•  The ground glass allows proper flow of the liquid, while the PTFE sleeve repels dirt.
•  As a result, pH electrodes with CPS™ stay fresh up to 20 times longer than conventional electrodes.

  Double Junction Reference
•  A double junction electrode has an internal compartment surrounding the reference wire.
•  Silver ions are present in the electrolyte of the internal compartment, which houses the Ag/AgCl reference wire; the electrolyte outside this compartment is silver free.
•  The double junction design means that virtually no silver from the electrode enters the sample.
•  This design allows measurement in applications where silver ions in the sample are undesirable or silver precipitates on the junction are likely to form.

  Glass Electrode Body
•  The glass electrode body is suitable for a wide range of applications due to its chemical resistance.
•  The glass pH electrode is compatible with many non-aqueous solvents and other aggressive chemicals.
•  Glass is also resistant to many forms of radiation, such as ultraviolet radiation.
