Professional Portable Soil pH Meter Electrode

Enhanced Data Traceability for Reliable Results

Ensure the integrity of your soil pH measurements with comprehensive GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) data. Easily accessible via a dedicated key, this feature records essential information including date, time, pH calibration buffers used, offset value, and electrode slope, providing you with verifiable and trustworthy data.

Flexible Data Logging for Efficient Analysis

Optimize your data collection with the convenient log-on-demand feature, allowing you to store up to 100 critical readings directly on the meter. The intuitive AutoEnd function automatically captures and holds the first stable pH measurement on the display, simplifying your workflow and ensuring consistent data recording in the field.

Robust Design for Superior Field Performance

Engineered to withstand the rigors of environmental and agricultural testing, the HI98168 boasts an IP67-rated waterproof body. This robust construction provides exceptional protection against dust and water ingress from any direction, ensuring reliable performance in demanding outdoor conditions. The secure Quick Connect DIN connector creates a watertight seal for the probe without the hassle of twisting.

Achieve precise soil pH analysis with the HI98168's specialized HI12923 direct insertion pH electrode, meticulously crafted for optimal accuracy and durability in soil measurements.

Purpose-Built Electrode for Direct Soil Measurement

The HI98168 professional soil pH meter features an integrated HI12923 probe, expertly designed for direct and reliable pH readings in a variety of soil types and conditions.

Enhanced Accuracy in Low Moisture Soils

The HI12923 electrode incorporates a triple ceramic junction, allowing for a higher electrolyte flow rate from the probe's interior to the soil. This increased flow significantly improves the accuracy of pH measurements, particularly in soils with lower moisture content, ensuring dependable results even in challenging conditions.

Optimized Tip for Direct Penetration

The electrode features a robust conical glass tip, specifically shaped to facilitate direct and easy penetration into various soil consistencies, including dense soil and soil slurries, ensuring good contact with the sample for accurate readings.

Durable and Easy-to-Clean Glass Body

The glass body of the HI12923 electrode offers excellent chemical resistance and is easy to clean, minimizing contamination and ensuring accurate measurements over time. Its rapid thermal equilibrium also contributes to faster and more stable readings in fluctuating temperatures.

HI12923 Direct Soil pH Electrode
HI98168 Professional Portable Soil pH Meter Complete Kit

Experience hassle-free soil pH testing with the HI98168, equipped with all the necessary components for accurate measurements right out of the box.

Specialized Cleaning Solution for Soil Electrodes

Maintain the optimal performance and longevity of your HI12923 electrode with the included cleaning solution. Specifically formulated to remove organic matter and mineral deposits commonly found in soil, this concentrated cleaner ensures your probe remains free from contaminants, leading to consistently accurate pH readings.

Convenient pH Buffer Sachets for Calibration

Ensure the accuracy of your pH measurements through proper calibration. The HI98168 includes starter sachets of pH 4 and pH 7 buffer solutions, providing you with fresh and uncontaminated standards to calibrate your meter and achieve reliable results every time.
