APERA INSTRUMENTS / PH60-DE / AI3711-E
The Apera PH60-DE is a replacement glass-bulb pH probe for compatible ZenTest pocket testers and selected Premium models. It combines a double-junction design, built-in temperature sensor and blue inner gel solution for general water testing, including more complex water samples.
CURRENT PROBE: PH60-DE
These are selected compatible tester bodies, not items included with this replacement probe. See the complete compatibility table below.
Compatible ZenTest tester body
Apera specifies the PH60-DE for general water solutions as well as dirty and complex solutions. Its double-junction construction is a defining feature of this replacement probe.
The rounded glass membrane is designed for liquid pH measurement. A built-in temperature sensor accompanies the pH sensing element.
The exact probe uses Apera’s blue inner gel solution. This is a construction feature, not a substitute for correct storage, cleaning and calibration.
The plug-in probe is retained by the tester’s probe ring. It is a replacement sensor assembly, not a complete meter or tester kit.
Compatibility applies to the named tester body and stated sensing role. A shared connector or a similar probe name does not make every 60-series sensor interchangeable. Tester display, connectivity, app and data functions belong to the compatible tester, not this replacement probe.
Remove the probe cap, unscrew the probe ring and unplug the old probe. Align the new probe correctly before plugging it in, then tighten the probe ring. Do not force the connector.
After replacement, soak the probe in 3M KCl for 5–15 minutes, then calibrate the compatible tester before measuring. Follow the manual for the particular tester body and use fresh, clean pH calibration buffers.
For liquid samples, rinse the probe, immerse the sensing area as directed by the tester manual, gently stir and hold still until the reading stabilizes.
For pH testing of general water solutions used in hydroponics and aquaculture.
Suitable for the water applications named by Apera, including pools, spas, water treatment and cooling towers.
A glass-bulb option for environmental water samples, with a double-junction construction intended for more complex solutions.
Rinse the sensing area with pure water before and after measurements. Pure water is for rinsing, not storage: do not leave the probe in tap, RO, distilled or deionized water.
Keep the probe moist in Apera 3M KCl storage solution when it is not in use. Follow the storage-cap or storage-sleeve instructions for the compatible tester. Rinse away crystallized storage salts and replace contaminated storage solution.
Handle the glass sensing area carefully. If readings become unreliable, follow the parent tester’s cleaning and calibration guidance and inspect for damage rather than assuming that changing the probe alone resolves every measurement problem.
PH60-Z, PH60F-Z, PH60S-Z and PC60-Z. On PC60-Z it serves as a pH probe, not as the pH/conductivity combination probe.
It is designed for general water solutions, including hydroponics, aquaculture, pools and spas, water treatment, cooling towers and environmental water monitoring. Its double-junction design is also described for dirty and complex solutions.
No. It is a replacement probe assembly and requires a compatible tester body. Meter accuracy, display range and app features are not specifications of the probe alone.
Yes. Align and secure the probe, soak it in 3M KCl for 5–15 minutes, then calibrate using the procedure for your tester before measuring.
Keep the probe in Apera 3M KCl storage solution according to the tester’s cap or sleeve instructions. Never use tap, RO, distilled or deionized water for storage; pure water is for rinsing.
US manuals support PH60, PH60S and PH60F in addition to the listed ZenTest bodies. Do not assume compatibility with every Premium model or treat PH60-DE and PH60-E as the same SKU.
No. This is a pH probe. PC60-Z compatibility does not turn it into a conductivity, TDS, salinity or ORP sensor; those measurements need the appropriate separate probe.
Apera’s US electrode warranty covers qualifying defects in materials and workmanship for six months from delivery, with repair or replacement at Apera’s option. Exclusions include accidental damage, improper use, normal wear, transportation, storage, failure to follow instructions, unauthorized maintenance or repair, and external causes. This is not the parent tester’s two-year warranty.
Apera Manufacturer Limited Electrode Warranty
Six months from delivery for qualifying defects in materials and workmanship attributable to Apera, subject to its stated terms. The parent tester warranty does not extend this probe coverage.
Exclusions include accidental damage, improper use, normal wear, transportation or storage issues, failure to follow instructions, unauthorized repair or modification, and external causes. Follow the exact probe and compatible tester instructions for installation, calibration and care.
Each card opens a verified official PDF. Parent-tester manuals cover the stated body and its procedures; they are not standalone specifications for this probe. Regional documents are identified, and warranty or compatibility wording can differ from US documentation. Use this listing’s specific compatibility notes.
