Milwaukee has a wide assortment of pH ORP, Conductivity and other specialty sensors to meet all your specific requirements. Finding the right electrode for a specific application is a very important task and in order to solve this selection problem it is important to consider the following:

pH & ORP Electrodes & Probes 1. Glass body electrode versus Epoxy (plastic) body electrode: Glass body electrodes stand higher temperatures (typically 100 C against 80 C for plastic) and are more resistant to corrosive chemicals and solvents. They are easier to clean and are available in different shapes depending on the application. On the other hand plastic body electrodes are more rugged and the glass bulb is better protected. 2. Gel filled electrodes versus refillable electrodes: refillable electrodes last longer since electrolyte can be changed for repeated usage. The response is faster due to a greater outflow of electrolyte into the sample and therefore less likely to clog. Gel filled electrodes require less maintenance and resist to higher pressure. 3. Double reference junction versus Single junction reference: Double junction reference electrodes have a longer live and protects the sample measured from silver contamination from the electrolyte. The Silver wire is more protected and therefore gets less contaminated. The single junction electrodes normally costs less and is ideal for general purpose applications 4. Conic shaped versus Sphere shaped: The conic shaped electrode is easier to clean and to maintain (ideal for applications such as dairy). Has a more rugged tip and therefore ideal for penetration. The sphere-shaped has a faster response time due to the larger surface area on the bulb.
