pH Electrode, AmpHel General Purpose Amplified, with PEI Body, Gel-filled, Internal Battery, BNC Connector, 5 m Cable, Cloth Junction, Hanna Instruments, HI2910B/5

HI 2910B/5 is an AmpHel® general purpose pH electrode with PEI body and 5 m cable.

Advantages and Characteristics of the AmpHel Electrodes:

• Strong signal up to 75 meters (246’)
• Low noise coaxial cables are no longer required
• Measurements in unclean samples and high humidity conditions
• Glass sensor for specific applications
• Combination Ag/AgCl sensor and reference system
• Rugged design with epoxy body housing and sensor protection
• Battery life of 2 years
• Very low output impedance (typically 10 Kohms) for:
  • Instantaneous response
  • Unsurpassed stability
  • Connections with long unshielded cables
  • High mechanical and electrical noise immunity
  • Compatibility with existing pH meters in the market
  • On-line process control applications
• Double junction reference system for minimization of contamination due to clogged pores or ingress of sample
• High flow rate fiber junction for optimum ionic conduction
• Complete pH range from 0 to 14 and from 0 to 80^oC

Due to the high resistance of the glass membrane, conventional electrodes require a high impedance measurement system. Inadequate insulation of the connectors and cables result in erroneous readings due to leakage or noise. For conventional electrodes, the lead is therefore limited to typically less than 15-20 meters. HANNA AmpHel® electrodes incorporate a miniaturized amplifier which resolves most of the problems associated with high impedance signals. The amplifier circuitry is located right on top of the electrode and is completely sealed. As a result, a strong, low impedance signal is emitted and ordinary connectors with long unshielded cables can be used. This breakthrough technology provides a stable signal for industrial monitoring as well as a major saving in low noise coaxial cable costs. In some cases, the need for a transmitter is also eliminated, resulting in further cost reductions.

For those applications that have been proven particularly hostile to electrodes, HANNA  has developed four types of specialized glass. First is an extremely durable sensor glass for general purpose and industrial use. This glass can withstand the stress of daily use. The remaining types of electrode glass allow continuous monitoring in highly acidic solutions containing fluoride ions, as well as high or low temperature process streams, without significantly reducing the useful life of the electrode.
