pH meter vs. dissolved oxygen meter
The pH electrode has a very high internal resistance, which makes it difficult to measure the voltage variation with pH. Therefore, the impedance of the pHmeter input and leakage resistances are important factors.
pH meter, turbidimeters and multiparameters
The pH is the unit of measurement that describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity and is measured on a scale ranging from 0 to 14. An approximate indication of pH can be obtained using pH indicators or tapes, which change color depending on the variation of the pH level. But these indicators have limitations in terms of accuracy and can be difficult to interpret correctly in dark or colorful samples.
A pH meter is an instrument used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. The quantitative information given by the pH value expresses the degree of acidity of an acid or a base in terms of the activity of the hydrogen ions.
You should keep in mind that the most accurate measurements are obtained using a pHmeter. The measurement system is made up of three parts: a pH measurement electrode, a reference electrode and a high input impedance meter. The pH electrode can be considered as if it were a battery, with a voltage that varies according to the pH of the measured solution.

KALSTEIN PH METER
In Kalstein you can find the pH meter or the turbidimeter for your laboratory
Always read the instruction manual before use. We must not forget that although the instructions can be boring, they will generally answer the questions we have about the correct use and care of the pH
Always make sure that the pH meter has been calibrated correctly, always move the pH meter in the water or solution to eliminate air bubbles and do not store it in distilled water.
If the handheld meter includes a storage solution in the lid, store the meter in a vertical position for the most efficient saturation.

Never touch a sensor electrode or reference cell with your fingers: the skin oil affects the readings and may permanently damage the pH sensor. Clean the electrode with the cleaning solutions created for this purpose.
What is dissolved oxygen?
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a measure of the amount of dissolved oxygen in a system / medium. Measurements are often taken on water samples using a DO probe and meter. When conducting dissolved oxygen testing in the field or laboratory, it is important to consider what type of dissolved oxygen technology is right for you.
Electrochemical sensors include both galvanic and polarographic types. A thin, permeable membrane gas isolates the sensor elements from water. The oxygen that passes through the membrane is reduced, creating a current that the meter converts into a measurement of oxygen concentration. Although electrochemical sensors are initially less expensive, they require frequent maintenance and depend on a constant sample flow for an accurate reading (since they consume the oxygen that permeates through the membrane).

Kalstein Testimonials
It is a scientific instrument that measures the activity of the hydrogen ion in aqueous solutions, which indicates its degree of acidity or alkalinity expressed in pH. The pH meter measures the difference in electrical potential between a pH electrode and a reference electrode. This difference in electrical potential is related to the acidity or pH of the solution. The pH meter is used in many applications ranging from laboratory experimentation to quality control.
There are general maintenance techniques for pH meters, but often each make and model has its own attention. We will have to follow the instructions of the counter manufacturer to enjoy it longer.
