The perfect EC meter to measure your hydroponic nutrient solution, accurate measurements of EC are crucial to healthy and happy plants. Apera EC Meters are very popular due to their long life span and easy calibration and overall maintenance, unlike other brands this EC pen will last you many years in your grow room
- APERA's unique Replaceable BPB (Brush-resistant Platinum Black) probe ensures high accuracy and consistency in a wide-range conductivity measurement
- EASY Auto Calibration with auto buffer recognition; Auto Temp. Compensation (ATC) ensures accuracy in variant temperatures (0-50.0°C)
- LARGE CLEAR LCD with 2 backlit colours (indicating 2 different modes), DUAL Display of temp./EC, and indications of completed calibrations and stable readings
- EASY Switch from EC to TDS/Salinity with customisable TDS factor (0.40-1.00)
- Complete kit with ready-to-use calibration solutions, calibration bottles, AAA batteries, and a lanyard all in a portable carrying case
The Apera Instruments EC60 Portable Pocket EC/TDS/Salinity Meter/Tester simply tests all kinds of regular conductivity measurements in an ACCURATE, QUICK, and RELIABLE manner. The applications include hydroponics, tap/drinking water, pools& spas, education, water treatment, environmental monitoring, etc. Up to 3 points of Auto Calibration with auto buffer recognition and 0 to 50°C Auto Temperature Compensation (ATC), 0.01 mS/±1% F.S, 0.5°C accuracy with measuring range of 0-200.0 μS/cm, 0-2000 μS/cm, 0-20.00 mS/cm, 0-50.0°C.
APERA's unique BPB (Brush-Resistant Platinum Black) sensor adopts a special processing technology, which minimises electrode polarisation, expands measuring range, and increases the firmness of the electrode, hence ensuring a much higher accuracy and consistency in a wide-range conductivity measurement than traditional stainless steel electrodes, and is easy to clean. The probe is replaceable and easy to install so that you don't have to buy a whole new meter once the probe is aged.
Auto recognition and indication of stable values improves consistency, saving you the trouble of guessing when to manually hold measurement. With a large clear 180° viewing angle screen with 2 backlit colours (blue for measuring mode and green for calibration mode), it supports dual display of temp./EC value and indications of completed calibrations (where M/H indicate 2 points of calibrations) and stable readings (with a smiley face).
Easy menu setting, customising your tester functions according to your needs (switch of temperature unit, TDS factor setting, Switch of salinity unit, auto hold on/off). Smart self-diagnosis, warning of out-of-range/preset measurement and incorrect calibrations.
Comes with a complete kit. IP67 waterproof and dust proof, floating on water. 1000 hours' continuous operation powered by AAA batteries (with low power warning and auto power off in 8 min if no operation).
Warranty: 2 years for the meter, 6 months for the probe.
