Description

Waterproof soil pH-meter easy to use pH-meter for determining the soil - pH-value / external pH-electrode / recalibrable / waterproof (IP 67) Information on the soil pH-meter for the healthy growth of plants are soil composition and pH-value of great importance. The pH value significantly influences how nutrients are available. The PPCE Instruments waterproof pH meter with external measuring electrode is ideal for measuring the pH value and thus the quality of the soil. To determine the pH value, the electrode can be easily inserted into the soil. It makes sense to slightly loosen the moist soil before each measurement. As a rule, it is sufficient to insert the electrode into the ground and read the pH value directly on the digital display. The soil pH-meter also enables the pH-value of a solution from a soil sample and distiled water to be determined. This is useful, for example, for a DIN measurement or for a particularly compacted soil. Whenever the electrode cannot penetrate deep enough into the floor to perform a precise measurement, the user should find a solution. The waterproof floor pH-meter with special external measuring electrode is used for the exact measurement of the pH-value. The soil pH-meter of PCE Instruments is particularly characterized by its high accuracy. The measuring range of the soil pH meter is from 0.00 to 14.00 pH. Thanks to the large digital display, the measured values are easy to read. In order to be able to read the measurement results even more easily, the display of the soil pH meter can be rotated by pressing a button. The practical data hold function of the soil pH meter allows the recorded values to be stored. To protect the battery, the soil has a pH meter with an automatic switch-off: When not in use, the meter switches off after ten minutes. The ideal ambient temperature for a measurement is between 15 and 35 degrees Celsius. To ensure the highest possible accuracy, a calibration should be performed at certain intervals. Recalibration of the soil pH meter guarantees optimum accuracy and can be carried out automatically via the keyboard with the support of a calibration solution. Special calibration screws are not required. The calibration data remains stored even when the batteries are replaced. The manufacturer also recommends that the electrode of the soil pH meter be cleaned with distiled water after each measurement. Application Areas Soil pH-Meter The Soil pH-Meter is the ideal solution for the exact measurement of the pH-value in the soil or in substrates in coatings close to the surface. In addition, the soil pH-meter is particularly suitable for the inspection of garden irrigation solutions used in greenhouses and also in agricultural holdings. For lower ground layers, it is recommended to mix a soil solution, as the length of the electrode is not always sufficient to measure in deeper layers. For the determination of the pH value in a soil solution, a soil sample must be taken from the depth where, for example, the root of plants or other plants are located. After stones and root work have been removed, the soil can then be dissolved in distiled water, creating an easy to measure liquid whose pH is representative of the pH value of the soil. The determination of the pH value is important for producers in the agricultural and forestry sector, since increased pH in the soil can lead to reduced nutrient availability. If the pH value of the soil is too low, plants absorb more heavy metals. In order to keep a close eye on the quality of the soil at all times, it is a good time to check the soil regularly with pH meters. The PPCE Instruments pH meter combines ease of use and reliability with a compact design. Its simple operation, waterproof housing and flexible application possibilities make the PPCE Instruments pH meter indispensable in assessing soil quality. The pH meter is used primarily in agricultural and horticultural enterprises, in laboratories and research. Thanks to its uncomplicated application, it is also suitable for inexperienced users. Thanks to the waterproof and robust housing, the soil pH-meter can be used at any time even under difficult conditions. Accessories Additional electrodes are available from PCE Instruments in addition to the pH meter. The manufacturer recommends the moist storage of some electrode types. The correct storage solution is available at PCE Instruments. PH electrodes drift off over time, which can lead to measurement errors. To ensure high accuracy, the soil should be calibrated regularly with the calibration solution available at PCE Instruments. The manufacturer also offers the CAL-PCE-PH calibration certificate for pH meters. Calibration certificates are issued specifically for customers, and annual recalibration can also be performed via PCE Instruments. For optimal cleaning of the soil pH meter, the cleaning solution Pepsin/hydrochloric acid PCE-GCS-500 (500ml) is available. In order to optimally protect the soil pH meter and accessories during transport and storage, the manufacturer recommends the use of the case with hard foam inlay, which is available separately.
