pH kit for wine

The HI222 professional pH kit for winemaking is a meter dedicated to wine measurement. The bench meter allows a two point calibration using buffers 7 and 3. Since wine analysis usually occurs in the range 2.5 to 3.6 pH, errors due to calibration are greatly minimised. Calibration Check features on the HI222 prompt the user to clean the electrode if required and can warn if the buffer has been contaminated. The electrode condition and response time are displayed and monitored on the meter's LCD. The user can program a calibration reminder using the Calibration Alarm Time Out. The HI222 also features Log-On-Demand.

The meter is supplied with a specialised electrode for wine measurement. The HI1048P electrode has a teflon sleeve junction. This design means maintenance and cleaning is minimised in difficult samples like wine, grape juice and must. A pH electrode gets dirty very rapidly during measurement of must because sediments deposit on the pH measuring bulb and on the electrode junction. Included with the meter are application-specific cleaning solutions for the removal of wine stains and deposits.

The HI222 is a complete kit for wine pH analysis. It is supplied complete with an HI1048P glass body combination pH electrode with BNC connector + PIN and a 1 m cable, HI7669/2W stainless steel temperature probe, HI74606 electrode holder, pH 3.00 and pH 7.01 calibration solutions for wine calibration, wine stains and deposits cleaning solutions, storage solution, 12 VDC adapter, quick reference card for pH in wine analysis and instruction manual.
