Detailed description
CPI-505 measures pH, redox potential (mV), ion concentration and temperature. Enables simultaneous ion selective measurement of chosen ion, pH or mV and temperature. It has a large backlit display. The chosen measuring function may be viewed by pressing an appropriate button.Characteristic features:
- Highly accurate measurement in each function.
- Easy parameter setting.
- Standardised procedures for pH and ion selective measurement facilitate working.
- “HOLD” function to freeze the result on the display.
- Signalisation of the result stabilisation with the “READY” symbol and a sound.
- Possibility of sending a calibration report to a PC - up to 10 last calibrations.
In the pH measuring function:
- Calibration of the pH electrode: 1 ÷ 5 points.
- Automatic detection of pH buffer values entered by the user.
- When NIST pH standards are used, their stored values are automatically corrected for temperature, so there is no need to heat or cool the solutions.
- Storing calibration parameters of 3 electrodes enables their quick replacement.
- Possibility to view the electrode's characteristics.
- Depending on the electrode used, measurements in pure water, sewage, pastes, etc. are possible.
- Isolated connectors for the pH and ion selective electrodes enable their simultaneous connection and measurements in one vessel.
- Automatic evaluation of the electrode condition.
- Readout of the pH electrode condition and data – the zero offset and slope percentage may be checked.
In the ion selective measuring function:
- Enables ion concentration measurements of monovalent, bivalent, negative and positive ions.
- The measuring range enables work with all available ion selective electrodes (ISE), chosen adequately to the kind of measured ion, equipped with BNC-50 connector.
- The meter has separate BNC connectors for the pH electrode and the ion selective (or redox) electrode, and a banana connector for the reference electrode.
- The meter automatically introduces the molar weight and valence of the chosen ion.
- The user may choose the unit: pX, g/l, M/l, ppm.
- Automatic unit conversion (e.g. mol/l to mg/l).
- Possibility of entering freely chosen values of ion standard solutions.
In the redox (mV) measuring function:
- Precise redox potential measurement (accuracy 0.1 mV).
- Possibility to measure redox potential relatively to the entered or measured reference potential – Vref.
- The mV measurement is possible using the pH or the ISE connector.
Other features:
- Automatic or manual temperature compensation.
- Clock with date.
- Storing of the next calibration date.
- Internal data-logger for up to 4000 sets of results collected singly or in series with temperature, time and date.
- The results and calibration data are stored in non-volatile memory.
- Possibility to connect the meter with a PC by USB output (USB cable and software included in the set).
- Possibility of protecting the date and time against changes by an unauthorised person using a password.
- The data transmission software enables printout of the data in a form protected against any changes.
- Powered with a power adapter.
- The meter meets the GLP requirements.
- IP64 ingress protection.
- 24 months of warranty for the meter.
- Pendrive with software for data transmission and collection and user's manual in English included in the set.
The ISE electrodes are chosen individually.
