Apera Instruments PC8500 Portable pH/Conductivity Meter Kit with GLP Data Logger and USB Output
Product Description
The Apera Instruments PC8500 Portable pH/Conductivity Meter Kit is engineered for precise, lab-grade measurement of pH, conductivity, TDS, salinity, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and temperature in both field and benchtop environments. Featuring compatibility with up to three simultaneous electrodes, this meter supports versatile water quality analysis essential for molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing, and environmental biotechnology applications.
Key Technical Features:
- Multi-parameter capability: Simultaneous pH, conductivity, TDS, salinity, ORP (with optional 301Pt-C probe), and temperature measurement
- Automatic calibration: One- to three-point auto calibration with recognition of standard buffers (pH 1.68, 4.00, 7.00, 10.01, 12.45) and conductivity standards (1413 µS, 12.88 mS, 84 µS, 111.8 mS)
- Data management: Integrated GLP data logger stores up to 500 datasets, with USB data output for analysis on Windows-based PCs — critical for traceability in biomanufacturing and synthetic biology workflows
- Advanced electrode technology: Includes 2301T-S conductivity electrode with platinum black cell ensuring ±1% full scale accuracy over 0–200 mS/cm range, plus ceramic/fiber filament junction to minimize clogging and extend sensor life
- Temperature compensation: Built-in temperature sensors provide automatic temperature compensation (ATC) for accurate measurements in fluctuating environmental conditions
- Rugged design: IP57-rated water resistance and shock-absorbent rubber sleeve for durability in harsh field environments, alongside a foldable stand enabling benchtop use for laboratory research in biomedical engineering and clinical diagnostics
- Customizable settings: Adjustable parameters including pH standard series, resolution, stability criteria, temperature units, conductivity cell constants, reference temperature, temperature compensation coefficients, and TDS conversion factors (0.40 to 1.00) to tailor measurements to specific experimental needs
The PC8500’s data-logging and dual-interface capabilities render it essential for biotechnology researchers needing reliable, field-ready pH and conductivity analysis with comprehensive data reporting. Its compatibility with Apera LabSen Series BNC pH electrodes further extends its versatility in advanced gene editing and cell culture monitoring applications widely adopted in cutting-edge bioprocessing environments.
