High-Temperature and High-Pressure Glass-Based pH Probes

Glass-Based High-Temperature and High-Pressure pH electrodes are divided into three types (A, B, and C).

Types A and B high pressure pH electrodes  have a compression fitting and an insertion tube. Type A has an NPT fitting with a metal seal that will be locked to the insertion tube after first use (insertion depth one-time adjustable only). Type B has an NPT fitting with a soft seal that can be reposition on the insertion tube after each use (insertion depth fully adjustable).  The NPT fittings for Types A and B designs are sold separately.  

Type C pH electrode has a thread fitting. If the NPT size is 1/4" or larger, a thin-walled protection tube may be provided . Type C design is ultra compact and may be used in autoclaves that has smaller access ports (1/8" or 1/4" NPT). But the insertion depth for Type C high pressure pH electrode is fixed at factory (non adjustable).

* No protection tube and extra cares are needed during handling because glass bulb/tube is fragile.
