The HI 98129 Combo waterproof tester offer high accuracy pH, EC/TDS and temperature measurements in a single tester! No more switching between meters for your routine measurements. The waterproof Combo (it even floats) has a large easy-to-read, dual-level LCD and automatic shut-off. pH and EC/TDS readings are automatically compensated for the effects of temperature (ATC). This technologically advanced tester has a replaceable pH electrode cartridge with an extendable cloth junction as well as an EC/TDS graphite electrode that resists contamination by salts and other substances. This gives these meters a greatly extended life. Your tester no longer needs to be thrown away when the pH sensor is exhausted.

The EC/TDS conversion factor is user selectable as is the temperature compensation coefficient (ß). Fast, efficient, accurate and portable, the Combo pH, EC/TDS and temperature tester brings you all the features you've asked for and more!

The Combo HI 991404 meter is designed for continuous, high accuracy pH, EC/TDS and temperature measurements. These microprocessor indicators continuously monitor the three most important nutrient parameters in hydroponics, greenhouses and horticultural applications with a single instrument. These indicators feature a large, dual-level, backlit LCD to give you instantaneous readings of pH, EC or TDS and temperature, even from a distance.

At startup, these indicators perform a self-check to assure proper working condition. HI 991404 stability indicator and hold features prompt the user when to take the reading and freezes the display for easy and accurate recording.

Calibration and temperature compensation is automatic, while the EC/TDS conversion factor and temperature coefficient (ß) are user adjustable for application-specific measurements.

These instruments are supplied with an advanced, non-clogging double junction pH electrode and a rugged conductivity probe that will withstand even the most aggressive environments. The instruments are powered by a 12 volt dc transformer and are easy to install and use.

HI 981401N has been designed to meet the Grower's need for equipment suited to the aggressive environments found in agricultural and hydroponics applications. The housing is water-resistant and features a molded eye which allows installation right above the sample to be monitored.

Measurements are highly accurate and can be verified with one or two point calibrations. With a 12 Volt DC power supply included with the meter, low battery failures are never an issue. The electrode is interchangeable and the connector is well-protected behind a waterproof sheathing. The meter is supplied with a stainless steel probe, preventing potential grounding problems and ensuring extended electrode life.

The gel-filled pH electrode has been specially designed to address the needs of growers. Its design guarantees greater clogging resistance in fertilizer solutions with high concentrations of phosphate, nitrate, etc.

Designed for continuous monitoring of pH, TDS and temperature, the HI 981504 is simple to install and can be placed above the sample to be tested. pH, TDS and temperature measurements are simultaneously displayed on three backlit LCDs which can be easily viewed at a distance - even in low light. This means no more switching between parameters.

The HI 1286 gel-filled pH electrode is provided with a waterproof sheath to protect the BNC connector. The unique design of the electrode provides longer life in aggressive solutions. The HI 7634 TDS probe is easy to clean and requires little maintenance. Measurements are accurate and the meter can be calibrated at one or two points for pH and at a single point for TDS. Temperature range is factory calibrated.

The HI 98107 (pHep®), which is the result of over two decades of research and manufacturing experience, is the updated version of our widely popular 96107 (pHep®). Today the redesigned pHep series feature a rugged and ergonomically enhanced casing that fits comfortably in your hand and a larger LCD which makes it easier to read at any angle. With the latest innovation of a non-clogging fiber junction the new pHep meters last much longer. Simply pull out 1-2 mm (1/8") of the junction fiber to completely renew the junction.

The pHep® offers a Range of 0.0 to 14.0 pH and an Accuracy of ±0.1 pH. This tester is calibrated manually to 2 points.

The Primo TDS tester provides a fast and dependable way to measure the Total Dissolved Solids in your water samples. It is ideally suited for the rigorous demands of water quality professionals, who will appreciate the practicality of Primo's easy-to-read LCD when demonstrating the before and after results of conditioning and filtration systems. Temperature is compensated automatically to ensure the readings are consistent to the standard or reference temperature.

Operating and routine maintenance has never been easier. Primo TDS uses a single button at the top of the meter. Press it once and the meter is powered and ready for use. Press and hold the button for a few seconds and Primo automatically enters calibration mode. Simply open a sachet of the calibration solution, dip the probe and within seconds the meter recognizes the calibration solution and calibrates itself! Maximum battery life is managed by Primo's power microprocessor, which automatically turns it of after 5 minutes.

HI 9813-0 allows you to measure pH, EC (conductivity) and TDS with just one instrument! This meter has a full-spectrum pH measurement range.

The EC range goes to 4.00 mS/cm. In the TDS range, both instruments use a conversion factor from 0.56 to 0.72 for fertilizer readings, to ensure your measurements fully conform to industry standards.

The specially engineered HI 1285-0 probe is interchangeable and the pH electrode utilizes a fiber junction and gel electrolyte which are particularly suitable when used in fertilizer solutions.

HI 9813-0 and HI 9813-5 measure TDS in the 0 to 1999 ppm range.

HI 9813-5 also performs temperature measurements, with the special probe HI 1285-5.

pH electrodes are commonly designed to produce and output signal equal to 0 mV when immersed in a solution with pH 7. But a constant output value at pH 7 occurs as a result of certain adverse events, such as: A broken bulb in the pH electrode, A short circuit in the cable or connector, or Magnetic force leakage in the cable or connector (for example, in case of excessive humidity).

In these situations, the instrument displays a false reading at pH 7 and the user may not be aware that corrective measures are necessary; particularly if the user is anticipating a pH neutral reading. To avoid this problem, HANNA® developed F.S.T. technology for HI 9813-6. With this special security system, a system failure will force a fixed value close to pH 4, rather than pH 7, and render the problem clearer to the user.

For added confidence in your measurements, the meter is equipped with two LEDs and a "CHECK" button. While pressing this button, upon immersing the electrode in the Cal-Check solution HI 50021P, one of the LEDs will light up to indicate the status of the meter. The green LED ("OK") indicates the probe is working correctly, while the red LED ("C&C" Clean & Cal) indicates the electrode needs attention.

When HANNA® introduced its first version of the pHep (pH electronic paper) in 1986, it immediately revolutionized the standard in pH measurement. pHep's ease-of-use in combination with its affordability made it possible for non-technical and technical personnel alike to measure pH on the spot, accurately and inexpensively throughout a variety of industries. Since its introduction, over 1 million pHeps have gone to satisfied customers around the world.

We at HANNA® have always valued the comments and suggestions coming from our customers. For this series, we have included all of the features you have asked for and more! The pHep 4 and pHep 5 include features such as a dual-level LCD, battery level indicator, replaceable pH electrode cartridge, instability indicator, automatic shut-off and automatic calibration all in a floating, waterproof casing.
