Refillable Glass Body pH Electrode with Quick Connect DIN Connector

HI-11313 Refillable glass combination pH electrode with quick connect DIN connector

This electrode has a single ceramic junction in the outer reference cell and the spherical pH sensing portion is made with high temperature glass. This design consideration is ideal for general purpose use.

• Refillable Electrode
• Double Junction Design
• High Temperature (HT) Glass

The HI-11313 uses high temperature (HT) glass, spherical bulb, glass body, single ceramic reference, double junction and is refillable with 3.5M KCl. The spherical bulb is for general purpose use. Other tip shapes include conic for penetration and flat tip for surface measurements.

Key Features

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°C while the resistance of HT glass is around 400 megaohms at 25°C. As the HI-11313 is used at elevated temperatures the resistance decreases to approach the that of GP glass. The HI-11313 is suitable to use with samples that are between 0 to 100°C.

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 HI-11313 is a double junction design. pH electrodes are available as single junction or double junction. See below for a complete description of the differences. 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 reference. 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 HI-11313 is a refillable probe. Since it is a double junction pH electrode the fill solution is the HI-7082 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.

Quick Connect DIN Connector

The HI-11313 uses a Quick Connect DIN connector that makes attaching and removing the probe simple and easy. This type of connector is proprietary to the meter. See specifications table for compatible meters.
