The new Thermo Scientific Eutech 150 & 450 Waterproof Handheld Meters offer an innovative approach to electrochemistry measurement. The latest addition to Thermo Fisher’s value-line of meters, the Eutech 150 & 450 series include seven waterproof handheld meters designed to deliver bench-top functionality with the versatility of a portable instrument. Features such as an optional power supply, convenient bench-top stand, and a lightweight but rugged housing allow for high performance in the lab or in the field.

The new Thermo Scientific Eutech 150 & 450 Waterproof Handheld Meters will be displayed this week at ACHEMA 2015, June 15-19, 2015 at the exhibition grounds of Messe Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, Laboratory and Analytical Techniques Hall 4.2, Booth D8.

The Eutech 150 and 450 meter series allow users to move to wherever readings are needed, regardless of whether they are under a hood, on the production floor, in the next room, at the bench or in the field. The meters incorporate the new Thermo Scientific Grip-Clip electrode holder, an innovative device for securing one or more sensors during measurement, or directly to the meter when not in use. The Grip-Clip electrode holder allows for single-handed measurement and secures to most beakers and sample containers without the need for a cumbersome and immobile electrode stand.

As part of the Eutech line of electrochemistry instruments manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific, the new meters offer versatility and portability at a value from a company you can trust.

Key features:

  • Measurement parameters offered include pH, mV, ION, ORP, conductivity, TDS, salinity, ISE, dissolved oxygen and temperature
  • Simultaneously displays measurement with temperature and slope/efficiency on large three line display
  • Lightweight, waterproof design built for durability
  • The 150 series features 150 data sets, whereas the 450 series features 500 data sets, backlight, USB or RS232 output and free communication software
  • Designed for use with the Glip-Clip electrode holder to enhance portability (models with 12 mm or 16 mm sensors include Grip-Clip electrode holder as a standard accessory)

pH Meters and ElectrodesIon and pH meters are electrochemical equipment used to measure the pH (acidity or alkalinity) or specific ion concentration of a solution. Other meters can also measure the conductivity or dissolved oxygen content of a solution. pH meters, specific ion meters, conductivity meters and dissolved oxygen meters can come as benchtop or portable equipment. A meter’s electrodes can be replaced with easy to clean electrodes or electrodes for difficult media. pH, ion and conductivity meters are typically used in life science research, pharmaceutical testing, food and beverage, environmental and water analysis. Find the best pH meters and electrodes in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.pH and Conductivity MetersIon and pH meters, used for electrochemical techniques and measurements, measure the concentration of specific ions using electrodes (probes) and a meter. Features of ph and ion meters to consider include temperature compensation, auto-calibration, adjustable resolution, measurable range and accuracy. Meters can be handheld, portable, benchtop and modular.Food and Beverage AnalyzersFood and Beverage Analyzers are commonly used to provide information about the chemical composition, structure and physical properties of food materials.Quality ControlQuality control is needed in all production processes. Quality control is a monitoring procedure or set of procedures that are put in place to ensure that a manufactured product adheres to a defined set of quality criteria. Waste WaterAgricultureAgriculture research focuses on improving food production, crop management, and sustainability. This includes plant breeding, pest control, and soil health studies. Explore agriculture research tools in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Food TestingFood testing refers to a variety experiments including PCR, mass spectrometry, processing, QuEChERS, analyzing and Kjeldahl.Environmental ContaminationContaminants in the environment are harmful chemicals that are present in the air, land and water. These include pesticides, pharmaceuticals, persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and many more.
