pH Measurement

The 851-pH package comprises an 851 data logger, a pH connection box and Windmilll data acquisition software. Just connect your electrodes to the pH box's input protected sockets, plug the box into the 851 data logger and away you go. This method of connection means you can use the 851 Data Logger to monitor, for example, temperatures, flow or level at the same time as pH

The standard pH package handles 12 pH electrodes, but can be expanded to 16 electrodes on request.


Designed for Accuracy

The voltage produced by a change in pH is very small. A change of one pH unit on the pH scale produces (ideally) a change in voltage of 59.16 mV at 25 oC. With the 851-pH package you can choose a narrow input range such as +/- 10 or 100 mV, or select autoranging to let the software automatically choose the best range for your measurements. Choosing the smallest range that encompasses your signals will optimise the resolution of the measurement. You can also choose the resolution of the analogue-to-digital converter, selecting 18-bit for more accurate measurements. The higher resolution slows down the system to 6 samples per second, but as pH changes relatively slowly this is not generally a problem. If you need faster measurements, choose 16- or 15-bit resolution.

An integrating analogue-to-digital converter reduces internal noise and a differential amplifier helps reduce external noise.

To further improve accuracy, make sure you keep the wires between the electrodes and the pH box short - spanning not more than a few meters.


Set Alarms on Each pH Probe

You can set two alarm levels on each pH probe, and specify what happens when an alarm threshold is crossed. For example, an alarm could be sounded or other equipment switched on.


Software

Windmill Software is included in the 851-pH package. This modular suite offers data logging, charting, alarm indication, output control, process mimic generators, sequence control, programming tools and many other modules.


Free Technical Support and Money-Back Guarantee

All our systems come with free technical support for life and a guarantee that if you aren't satisfied we'll give you your money back.
