Product Summary
The Wireless pH Sensor is a must-have for any chemistry, biology, or environmental science course. Equally capable in the lab or field, the sensor eliminates the hassle of cables, reducing spills and improving safety. Don't worry about charging, the sensor has a coin-cell battery that lasts for 2-3 years in most labs and costs about one dollar to replace. The sensor can transmit data in real-time, or store data for days when continuous monitoring is required. The Wireless pH Sensor performs acid-base titrations, investigation of household chemicals, changes in pH during reactions, water quality studies, and much more.
The Wireless pH Sensor uses a BNC connector to attach the pH probe. This amplifier can be used with other probes as well, such as ORP, Flat pH, and ISE electrodes. Please see the buying guide for a full list of compatible accessories.

High School / Chemistry • STEM
Students will be using a pH sensor, a drop counter, and Blockly coding to demonstrate the endpoint of a titration of an acid by a base.
High School / Environmental Science
In this lab, students use carbon dioxide, conductivity, and pH sensors to determine the quality of different soil samples.
Middle School / Life Science
In this lab, students will use pH sensors to measure the pH of several different household chemicals
Advanced Placement / Chemistry
In this lab, students use a pH sensor to analyze the nature of buffers as they prepare buffer solutions of a specified pH and test their efficacy.
High School / Chemistry
In this lab, students will use a pH sensor and common household chemicals to relate pH and hydronium ion (H3O+) concentration. Students will classify solutions as acidic, basic, or neutral.
Advanced Placement • College / Chemistry
This lab is an introduction to Redox titration. Students use a redox probe and titration to determine the hydrogen peroxide content of a drugstore formulation.
