Vitalsine Monitors

pH/ORP Monitor

The Vitalsine pH/ORP Monitor is a completely waterproof and durable unit. It offers a wealth of features usually only seen in field instruments used in professional aquaculture applications but at a very economic price.

• pH and temperature monitor which can be converted to an ORP monitor by simply changing the probe (ORP probe sold separately).

• The monitor's internal microprocessor automatically recognises buffer solutions when calibrating.

• By using the probe's built-in thermometer, the monitor also automatically compensates for solutions that are not at room temperature.

• Auto power off function (preventing battery drain).

• Low battery indicator.

• Supplied with a black rubber cover which protects the monitor in the field and can also be used to wall mount the unit.

• Easy, on screen identification of the health of the probe.

• Monitors supplied with a 9V battery and a fixing kit for mounting the probe.

• 1 year guarantee.

ORP Probe

Turn the Vitalsine Monitor from a pH monitor to an ORP monitor simply by changing the probe.

12mm diameter and fitted with a 1m cable.

Please note that this ORP probe does not require calibration.

Spare pH Probe

This pH probe has built-in automatic temperature compensation and is supplied with a 1m cable.

12mm diameter.

pH Calibration Fluid

This is the easiest way to calibrate a pH probe in the field.

Each sachet contains 20ml of calibration solution and each box contains 20 sachets.

1 year shelf life.

Available in pH 4.01, pH 7.00 and pH 10.00.

Technical Tip

Follow the guidelines below for proper handling and storage of pH probes, which will not only help to prolong its life but will also ensure fast, accurate readings:-

• Probes should be rinsed between samples wih de-ionized or distilled water.

• Never wipe a probe to dry it as this can cause static to build up giving false readings

• Never store probes in water as this will make the probe slow to respond

• Always keep the tip of the probe moist, preferably by keeping it in a probe storage solution (4M KCl - potassium chloride). Alternatively a pH 4 buffer solution will work as a temporary measure.
