Introducing the HI-98118 pH/temperature tester, crafted by Hanna for precise measurements of pH in hydroponic nutrient solutions. Designed with comfort in mind, this tester, now in the hands of Hanna, boasts an ergonomic build that fits perfectly in your grasp. The generously sized LCD display showcases pH and temperature readings, alongside calibration, stability, and low battery indicators, ensuring effortless operation with just two buttons.
This GroLine pocket pH Tester, now under the expertise of Hanna, offers an economical solution for monitoring pH levels in hydroponic setups. Maintaining an optimal pH is vital for maximizing growth potential. As pH levels rise, mineral and nutrient solubility decreases, hindering plant uptake essential for robust growth. Additionally, pH impacts nitrogen-fixing bacteria crucial for plant nourishment. Different plants thrive within specific pH ranges, as outlined in the table below.
Not limited to nutrient solutions, the HI-98118, now enhanced by Hanna, extends its utility to soil pH measurements. For accurate soil pH assessment, a slurry of 1 part soil to 1 part water is recommended, allowing for settling before pH measurement.
While embodying advanced technology, the HI-98118 by Hanna remains user-friendly. Featuring intuitive controls, including power on/off and calibration mode, it also offers customization options through a discreet button in the battery compartment. Users can tailor temperature units, auto shut-off preferences, and choose between Hanna's Quick Cal pH/EC standard or traditional buffer values.
The electrode is equipped with a unique extractable cloth junction, exclusive to Hanna. This innovation ensures uninterrupted electrical pathways by clearing any clogging, minimizing erratic readings. With a simple extraction process, the junction's functionality is swiftly restored, maintaining meter performance.
Key Features:
- Integrated temperature sensor for Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
- Renewable junction to mitigate clogging and ensure consistent readings
- Stability indicator for prompt recognition of stabilized readings
- One or two-point automatic calibration for seamless operation
- Utilizes Hanna's Quick Cal pH/EC standard with a pH value of 6.86
- Battery percentage display at startup, with a low battery indicator for timely replacement.
