HI1131B

Description

Perfect for any laboratory use, the HI1131B is a s a glass-bodied combination pH electrode with a BNC connector. With a double junction design and the ability to change out contaminated electrolyte, this economical pH electrode ensures great results in your laboratory and clean water testing.

•  High temperature glass can stand up to the effects of elevated temperatures leading to longer probe life.
•  BNC connector for quick and easy connection to any pH meter.
•  Great for general laboratory use.

 The HI1131B uses high temperature (HT) glass, spherical bulb, glass body, single ceramic frit, double junction and is refillable with 3.5M KCl.
High Temperature Glass Formulation
•  The measurement of pH at very high temperatures is detrimental to the sensitive glass bulb and will shorten the life of it.
•  A pH electrode with general purpose (GP) glass will have a resistance of 100 megaohms at 25^oC while the resistance of HT glass is around 400 megaohms at 25^oC.
•  As the HI1131B is used at elevated temperatures the resistance decreases to approach the that of GP glass.
•  The HI1131B is suitable to use with samples that measure from 0 to 100^oC.

  Spherical Glass Tip
•  The spherical bulb is for general purpose use.
•  Other tip shapes include conic for penetration and flat tip for surface measurements.

  Glass Body
•  The glass body is ideal for laboratory use.
•  The glass is resistant to many harsh chemicals and is easily cleaned.
•  The glass body also allows for a fast transfer of heat to the internal reference electrolyte.
•  The mV generated by the reference cell is temperature dependent.
•  The faster the electrode reaches equilibrium, the steadier the reference potential.

  Single Ceramic Double Junction Reference
•  The HI1131B is a double junction design. pH electrodes are available as single junction or double junction.
•  The junction also known as a salt bridge is necessary component of the electrical circuit.
•  The movement of ions must flow through the junction for a steady reading.
•  The outer reference has a single ceramic frit.
•  The ceramic is a porous material that is easily fused with the glass body and has a similar expansion coefficient.
•  A single ceramic junction has a flow rate of 15-20 μL/hour.
•  Other junction types are available with higher flow rates and made with different materials.

  Refillable
•  The HI1131B is a refillable probe.
•  Since it is a double junction combination ph electrode the fill solution is the HI7082 3.5M KCl.
•  This solution does not contain any silver as with single junction electrode.
•  The absence of silver will prevent any silver precipitate from forming at the junction surface and clogging it.
•  Clogging of the junction will result in drifty and erratic readings.

  BNC Connector
•  The HI1131B uses a BNC connector.
•  This type of connector is universal in that it can be used on any pH meter that has the female BNC probe input.
•  Other type of connectors include DIN, screw type, T-type, and 3.5mm to name a few.
•  These types of connectors tend to be proprietary for a particular type of meter and are not interchangeable.
