Pocket pH Tester Waterproof with 0.1 Resolution - pHep - Hanna Instruments
$39.95
Item #: HN49500
The Waterproof Pocket pH Tester pHep® is an easy-to-use pH water tester that makes monitoring water quality simple.
This accurate pH tester features 0.1 resolution with automatic two-point calibration and temperature compensation in a single, portable, pocket device. No more switching between meters for your routine measurements.
- Compact design fits right in your pocket so you can take it anywhere.
- Extractable cloth junction extends the life of your tester.
- Great for drinking water, aquariums, pools, & ponds.
The Waterproof Pocket pH Tester features a large multi-level LCD which displays both pH and temperature readings simultaneously. The pH readings are displayed with a 0.1 pH resolution and with an accuracy of ±0.1 pH. The pH range of the Waterproof Pocket pH Tester is from 0.0 to 14.0 pH. An exposed temperature sensor allows for rapid automatic temperature compensated pH measurements. Temperature can be set to display in °C or °F. The LCD screen has stability and calibration tag indicators. The battery percent level is displayed at start up alerting the user to the remaining battery power that is available.
The pH electrode uses a unique reference cell design that utilizes an extractable cloth junction. A clogged junction will typically exhibit erratic readings that will not stabilize. Simply extracting a small portion of cloth from the water pH teter will clear any clog by exposing a fresh, clean surface. The ability to clear any clogging will extend the life of the pH electrode.
Calibration is performed by pressing the dedicated calibration button. Once in calibration mode the pH electrode can be calibrated to 1 or 2 points using the pre-programmed standard buffers (pH 4.01, 7.01,10.01). When the standard value is recognized and stability is reached, the meter automatically accepts and stores the calibration value.
Setup options include automatic shut off timing and temperature unit displayed. Automatic shut-off options are to turn the water pH meter off after 8 minutes, 60 minutes, or disabled. To enter the setup mode the user presses a button located in the battery compartment.
Multi-Level LCD
The large LCD displays pH, Temperature, Calibration buffer tags, battery level and instability indicator.
Sensors
An exposed temperature sensor along with an extractable cloth junction ensures a fast and stable temperature compensated measurement.
Two-Button Operation
Only two buttons for pH water tester operation. One for on/off and one for calibration.
Features/Benefits

Integrated Temperature Sensor
- Built in temperature sensor allows for temperature compensated measurements. Temperature can be displayed in either °C or °F.
Automatic Calibration
- Automatic calibration to one or two points using standard buffers (pH 4.01, 7.01 and 10.01).
Stability Indicator
- A clock tag stability indicator will disappear to alert the user when the reading is stable.
Automatic Shut-Off
- User-selectable time until water pH meter shuts off to conserve battery life. Options are 8 min, 60 min or disabled.
Low Battery Indicator
- Low battery indicator that is displayed when less than 10% battery life is remaining.
Battery % Level at Startup
- At start-up, all the LCD segments are displayed for 1 second, then the percent indication of the remaining battery life is displayed.

Worth it but
While it is simple there is some tedious things involved like keeping the insert wet to ensure that it doesnt dry up. Much easier if you didnt have to worry about that but the readings are fast and clear

Great product!
Pros: Fast and easy results
Cons: No guidance on when and how often to calibrate
Device is easy to use. Make sure you get the storage solution because you have to store it wet. The results are very accurate because it adjusts for the actual temperature of the water! I hate the tests that require you to match a color because I am color blind. This gives almost instant results! Get some distilled water to rinse the instrument before and after use and you are good to go. Calibration was easy but there is no information on how often to calibrate.

Great product worth the money
Pros: Great product
Cons: A little extensive setup and you need a storage solution to keep it calibrated correctly.
Great handheld that allows for multiple testings.
