- Waterproof floating tester measures pH, high-range EC/TDS, and temperature for hydroponics, agricultural, and water-quality testing applications.
- pH electrode is replaceable, has a stainless steel snap-in connector that prevents bent or broken pins, and a renewable cloth junction that extends electrode life.
- Graphite conductivity electrode eliminates contamination by salt deposits in solution.
- Power management features include battery life displayed at startup, automatic shut-off, and battery error prevention system that alerts user when battery is low.
- Accessories include pH electrode, electrode removal tool, and four 1.5V batteries.
The Hanna Instruments HI 98130 waterproof floating tester
displays pH, high-range conductivity (EC) and total dissolved
solids (TDS) with Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) on a
dual-level LCD display for hydroponics, agricultural, and water
quality testing applications. The meter provides automatic
2-point pH calibration and automatic 1-point calibration for EC
and TDS. The HI 73127 pH electrode is replaceable, and has a
stainless steel snap-in connector that prevents bent or broken
pins. The pH electrode cloth junction is renewable and can be
pulled out further when the electrode is soiled to extend the
life of the electrode. The conductivity electrode is made from
graphite, which eliminates contamination from salt deposits in
the solution being tested. The exposed temperature sensor
provides quick response and accurate, ATC readings.
The tester has a number of power management features, including
the percentage of remaining battery power displayed at startup,
automatic shut-off after eight minutes of inactivity, and a
battery error prevention system that alerts the user when battery
is low to avoid issues with parameter readings. The tester comes
with a pH electrode, electrode removal tool, and four 1.5V
batteries.

A multiparameter meter is a benchtop or handheld device that can
take multiple readings on a single sample. It measures parameters
such as the pH level ( or alkalinity of a substance),
conductivity (the a of salts or other compounds present in
water), dissolved oxygen (DO, the a of oxygen in a liquid),
temperature, total dissolved solids (TDS, anything present in
water other than the pure water molecule and suspended solids),
salinity, resistivity, and oxidation reduction potential (ORP).
Applications for multiparameter meters include water testing,
ceuticals, agriculture, winemaking, water- s,
and acquaculture. Devices with a benchtop body are often used for
indoor laboratory use or in a manufacturing setting; handheld,
portable devices are typically used for fieldwork. Sensors are
used with a meter to measure the parameters of a substance.
Hanna Instruments manufactures analytical instrumentation and
supplies, including pH meters, electrodes, reagents, and
buffer solutions. The company, founded in 1978 and headquartered
in Woonsocket, RI, meets International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) 9001 standards.
