pH ph meters?

Sort by date Sort by votes
Hi oldsalty,
 
I use a Milwaukee ph56, that's been running reliably for a couple of years now. 
 
Not the cheapest, but the functions make it very user-friendly:  a very high degree of resolution (+/- 0.01 pH accuracy) with a built in temperature gauge and adjustment (so you don't need to manually adjust readings for different liquid temps), and it's also (after your first calibration) self-calibrating using memorized buffers.

I'm sure lots of peeps have other recommendations though.
 
Best,

There was a thread last month started by Gargoyle91. Last post was 9/9/2014 it is about 30-50 posts down this forum. Search PH Meters. Lots of people posted there recos on a good meter. I bought an HM PH-200 mainly because of the temp range at the high end; but there are plenty cheaper ones that are very very good.

OldSalty,
 
Sorry, guess I could have posted a link.  Here you go!  As I said, many posted their personal favorites including your host THP and others like JHP and many many more who know a lot about the subject.  Be sure to order the PH 4 and PH 7 calibrating solutions and if the sensor needs to rest in fluid, be sure to order the electrode storing solution.
