Description
HI6421P is a streamlined benchtop meter with a large touch screen display, comprised of a housing and an integrated module designed for fresh and saltwater measurements of dissolved oxygen.
HI6421P includes the HI764833 polarographic probe. Slim and versatile, this probe covers a wide range of dissolved oxygen and has a built-in thermistor temperature sensor that compensates for temperature variations. The slim design allows for convenient measurement in test tubes and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) bottles.
Durable and robust, the probe features a platinum cathode and Ag/AgCl anode assembly. Accurate and with a fast response time, readings are not flow dependent.
The probe is fitted with durable (PTFE), oxygen permeable, screw on membrane caps. Caps are filled with electrolyte and easily installed on the probe.
Concentration measurements are automatically compensated for barometric pressure, temperature, and salinity. Barometric pressure and temperature are automatically measured and compensated. Salinity is automatically compensated by setting manually the salinity concentration of the water being measured.
Additional features include built-in methods and calculations for the measurement of BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand), OUR (Oxygen Uptake Rate), and SOUR (Specific Oxygen Update Rate).
Pressure compensation is done automatically (built-in barometer) or users have the option to manually enter required value. Pressure is displayed in user-configurable units: mmHg, mbar, kPa, inHg, psi, atm.
