New Rugged Spear Tip pH Electrode for Sample Piercing Measurements



Ideal for Food Industry Applications

Garden Grove, CA-Food industry process and plant engineers in need of a durable, highly reliable penetration pH sensor for applications requiring sample piercing will find that the S175CD Spear Tip Piercing pH Electrode from Sensorex is ideal for measuring the pH of semi-solid material samples such as meat, sausage and cheese.

In food processing, the measurement of pH determines acidity and alkalinity. The pH level in food products affects safety, quality, taste, shelf-life, cost and other factors. The need for sampling of pH levels makes the S175CD Spear Tip Piercing Electrode especially useful in semi-solid foods that are more difficult to measure due to their texture.

The S175CD's pH electrode features an extremely rugged glass measuring spear shaped tip, which is enclosed in a durable, virtually unbreakable epoxy body. Its gel-filled, double-junction reference design provides protection from contaminating samples and provides extended service life if used with samples that interact with silver ions. An extended surface area semi-porous PVDF (Kynar) thermoplastic provides the junction with excellent sample contact.

The S175CD Spear Tip Piercing pH Electrode features a measurement range of 0-14 pH, (Na+ error > 12.3 pH). It operates for excursions up to higher temperatures and has a pH response speed >90% in 5-7 seconds.

Economical and user-friendly, the S175CD Spear Tip Piercing pH Electrode is shipped in a soaking solution so that it is ready for immediate use. Like all Sensorex laboratory electrodes, it comes with a 30-inch cable (76 cm), soaker storage bottle and a BNC connector at no additional charge. It is also compatible with many other connectors and can be used with most pH meters.
