Product Description
| Brand | Metrohm |
| Material | Glass |
| Capacity | 0 - 13 pH |
| CAT No. | 600257000 |
| Application | Titration Accessories |
Combined pH electrode with integrated Pt1000 temperature sensor and fixed cable (2.0 m, banana plug 2 mm) for pH measurement/titration in low-ion aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, process water), and also exhibits an exceptionally rapid response time in these samples.
The fixed ground-joint diaphragm is insensitive to contamination.
Storage in storage solution is recommended when c(KCl) = 3 mol/L is used as bridge electrolyte.
The bridge electrolyte can be replaced with a chloride-free electrolyte (e.g., potassium nitrate c(KNO3) = 1 mol/L (6.2310.010)), storage in used electrolyte.
Innovative Design for Challenging SamplesThe Aquatrode Plus stands out with its specialized diaphragm, making it ideal for protein or sulfide-rich samples that typically clog standard electrodes. Its sphere-shaped membrane ensures accurate response even in demanding laboratory environments, reinforcing robust performance for routine and advanced applications.
Integrated Pt1000 Temperature SensorEquipped with a built-in platinum (Pt1000) temperature sensor, this electrode enables automatic compensation of temperature influences on pH measurements. This integration enhances result reliability, ensuring precision in variable temperature conditions for consistent laboratory data output.
Durability and CompatibilityCrafted with a glass shaft and featuring a robust BNC plug and 2x banana plugs, the Aquatrode Plus seamlessly connects to Metrohm and most standard pH meters. Its refillable, silver-ion-free electrolyte and pressure resistance make it suitable for lasting performance in titration systems, routine testing, and research laboratories.
FAQ's of Metrohm Aquatrode Plus with Pt1000 (fixed cable):
Q: How do I properly use the Metrohm Aquatrode Plus with Pt1000 for pH measurements?
A: To use the Aquatrode Plus, immerse the sensor directly into your aqueous sample and connect it to your pH meter via the fixed BNC and banana plug cables. Ensure calibration with standard buffer solutions prior to measurements, and utilize the Pt1000 sensor for temperature-compensated readings.
Q: What maintenance procedures are required for the Aquatrode Plus electrode?
A: This electrode is refillable and requires regular top-ups of the specified 3 mol/L KCl electrolyte, which should be free of silver ions. Routinely check the diaphragm for any build-up and recalibrate the electrode using standard buffer solutions to maintain accuracy.
Q: When should I calibrate the Aquatrode Plus with Pt1000?
A: Frequent calibration is recommended, particularly before each series of measurements or when precise pH readings are critical. Use fresh standard buffer solutions for calibration to ensure reliable results.
Q: Where can I use this pH electrode and which applications benefit most from its features?
A: The Aquatrode Plus is ideal for laboratory analyses, titration systems, and water quality monitoring. Its clog-resistant diaphragm is especially advantageous for samples containing proteins or sulfide, making it suitable for both routine and specialized laboratory work.
Q: What is the process of refilling the electrolyte in the Aquatrode Plus?
A: Refill by opening the electrode's designated filling port and adding 3 mol/L KCl solution (free of silver ions) until it reaches the recommended level. Ensure the electrode remains upright during this procedure and always reseal the port after refilling.
Q: What benefits does the integrated Pt1000 temperature sensor provide?
A: The integrated Pt1000 sensor ensures accurate temperature compensation during pH measurements, delivering more reliable results and minimizing errors due to temperature fluctuations.
