How to choose ion meter model

The ion meter is an electrochemical analytical instrument used to measure the concentration of ions in a solution. According to the electrode structure used for measurement, it can be divided into gas-sensitive electrode type and membrane electrode type, and can be divided into desktop ion meter and portable ion meter according to the usage scenarios.

There are too many types of ion meters. Before purchasing an ion meter, first clarify the three major elements of your needs: application scenarios, measurement requirements, and procurement budget.

1. Application scenarios

If it is used in a quiet environment in the laboratory, choose a benchtop ion meter. If you need to change positions frequently, choose a portable ion meter. If it is used outdoors in a relatively harsh environment, purchase an ion meter with strong anti-interference ability and waterproof and dustproof design.

2. Measurement requirements

There are many different models of ion meters, with different technical parameters and functions. The types of solutions that can be identified, and the range and accuracy of measurement are also different. Before you make a purchase, consider exactly what solution to measure and how accurate the data needs to be.

3. Procurement budget

Based on the function and accuracy of ion meter, its price also varies. After determining the performance requirements for the ion meter, what needs to be considered is how to choose a product with high cost performance and reliable quality within the budget. If you are not sure which model to choose, compare the functions, parameters, prices, etc. of multiple products to make your decision.
