Plastic-Bodied K-SAT Reference Electrode

The latest screw-in K-SAT Reference Cell is an improved version of the original K-Series reference cell. It offers greater stability and a longer service life.

This K-SAT reference cell is used to verify the potential of the Silver/Silver Chloride/ Seawater (Ag/AgCl/seawater) half-cell in a BathyCorrometer®, UCP1A or UCP1B underwater probe. It has been specifically designed to be used on the BathyCorrometer®.

This is achieved by removing the stainless-steel probe tip and screwing on the K-SAT reference cell. The potential of the internal Ag/AgCl/seawater reference cell can then be checked. To be confident in the results, ideally a set of three, different, K-SAT Cells should be used.

The cells can also be used for checking the UCP1A or UCP1B probes but an adaptor lead (6004-0018) and a high impedance voltmeter (greater than 10 M Ohm) would also be required. The electrode is housed in a high resistance PVC body. The reference electrode is supplied with full operating instructions and will give a service life of up to 1 year if correctly maintained and used.
