Differential Electrode
Designed for continuous
use in industrial process applications, the ECFP21A1A1 pH Differential
Electrode offers several advantages for demanding process applications:
-
Longer
sensor life in a wide range of measurement environments.
-
The reference electrode solution is buffered and less susceptible
to contamination than the standard KCL reference solutions used
in combination electrode systems.
-
Any buffer standard from 2 pH to 10 pH can be used as a reference.
This is very useful for applications that require adjustable isopotential
points.
-
The reference electrode is a pH glass bulb and the inner fill
and silver wire are not
easily contaminated. For standard combination electrode systems
silver/silver
chloride wires are used as a reference and can react with some
process chemicals
over time.
-
Reference solutions and salt bridges can be easily replaced when
fouling does
occur.
-
Integral electronic amplifiers measure potential difference of
the process electrode
and the reference electrode with respect to solution ground. This
provides a low
impedance output from the sensor which results in the following
benefits:
-
Extended cable lengths of up to several hundred feet
-
Low noise and expensive coaxial cable is not needed.
-
Hand capacitance is dramatically reduced – readings
do not fluctuate when
sensors are held.
-
Electrical interference from motors, pumps and transformers
are reduced.
-
Ground currents are essentially eliminated.

Applications
Differential
pH electrodes need special input electronics and cannot be connected
to conventional pH transmitters and controllers. A good example of
a differential pH system is the Alpha
pH 2000D Controller and the Differential pH Electrode.
