Flat-surface pH sensing for compatible ZenTest testers

The Apera PH60F-DE replacement probe uses a flat glass membrane for surface pH testing and small-volume solution samples. Its built-in temperature sensor and blue inner gel solution are paired with compatibility for PH60F-Z, PH60-Z, PH60S-Z and PC60-Z.

Which tester does this probe fit?

CURRENT PROBE: PH60F-DE

These are selected compatible tester bodies, not items included with this replacement probe. See the complete compatibility table below.

Why choose this replacement probe?

Flat glass membrane

The flat sensing surface is designed for surface pH work rather than penetrating a solid sample.

Small-volume solution testing

Apera names small-volume solution samples among the probe’s applications. No minimum sample volume is specified here.

Integrated temperature sensing

The replacement assembly includes a built-in temperature sensor together with the flat glass pH membrane.

Blue inner gel

Apera specifies a blue inner gel solution for this exact probe. Correct conditioning, calibration and storage remain part of its routine use.

Check the exact tester model before ordering.

Compatible tester Role and limits
PH60-Z Compatible ZenTest tester body. Supported by the US ZenTest compatibility table and/or the exact body manual. Recalibrate after replacement.
PH60F-Z Compatible ZenTest tester body. Supported by the US ZenTest compatibility table and/or the exact body manual. Recalibrate after replacement.
PH60S-Z Compatible ZenTest tester body. Supported by the US ZenTest compatibility table and/or the exact body manual. Recalibrate after replacement.
PC60-Z Compatible ZenTest tester body. Accepts this as a pH probe; it is not the PC60-DE pH/conductivity combination probe. Do not expect conductivity, TDS or salinity from this pH-only probe.

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.

Fit, condition and calibrate before testing

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 surface work, use an appropriate preparation method for the sample and establish contact between the flat sensing face and the test area. For liquid samples, follow the tester’s immersion instructions and wait for a stable reading. Do not use the flat probe as a spear.

Match the sensor to the sample.

Surface pH testing

For the surfaces named by Apera, including paper, fabrics, leather and concrete. Follow a suitable sample-preparation procedure for the material being tested.

Small liquid samples

A flat-membrane option for small-volume solutions where the sensing surface can make proper sample contact.

General water solutions

The probe can also be used for general water solution testing on a supported ZenTest body.

What this order supplies

Included item Details
PH60F-DE replacement pH probe Replacement probe assembly for the compatible bodies listed here. This listing is not a complete tester kit.

Keep the sensing area clean and correctly stored

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.

PH60F-DE buyer questions

Which ZenTest bodies does this probe fit?

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.

What samples is it designed for?

Apera names flat surfaces including paper, fabrics, leather and concrete, as well as small-volume solutions and general water solutions. No clinical or diagnostic use is claimed.

Is this a complete tester?

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.

Do I need to calibrate after replacing it?

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.

How should I store it?

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.

Does it work with older Premium testers?

This listing confirms only PH60F-Z, PH60-Z, PH60S-Z and PC60-Z. Regional Apera documents differ on broader Premium compatibility, so check the exact body with Apera before ordering for an older tester. This is not a claim that every older body is incompatible.

Can it measure conductivity or ORP?

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.

What manufacturer warranty applies?

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.
