The SUP-pH6001 replaces fragile glass housings with a high-density, impact-resistant ABS polymer body while retaining a high-performance annular Teflon (PTFE) reference junction. Equipped with an integrated PT1000 RTD for reliable temperature compensation and dual 3\/4\" NPT threads, this sensor is built for direct submersible or inline pipe installations where physical survival is just as critical as electrochemical accuracy.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMechanical Resilience in High-Impact Basins\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlass-body sensors are inherently unsuited for high-velocity streams or basins containing heavy mechanical agitation, where loose debris can instantly shatter an exposed glass shaft. The SUP-pH6001 mitigates this risk by encasing the entire sensor assembly in a rugged \u003cb\u003eABS polymer sleeve\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo protect the sensitive glass measuring bulb itself, the ABS housing features integrated protective struts. These struts act as a mechanical guard against impacts from large particulates while still allowing maximum volumetric process flow across the measuring glass. This physical shielding drastically reduces sensor replacement costs caused by mechanical damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Annular Teflon Liquid Junction Advantage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn municipal sewage treatment, agricultural runoff, and industrial dosing loops, standard ceramic-wick reference junctions suffer from rapid blinding due to grease, biological films, and chemical scaling. Once the wick is blocked, the reference cell loses electrical continuity with the process, resulting in severe measurement drift or complete signal failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SUP-pH6001 solves this by using a high-surface-area \u003cb\u003eannular PTFE (Teflon) liquid junction\u003c\/b\u003e. The hydrophobic nature of the PTFE ring actively repels organic contaminants and heavy sludges. Because the junction covers a wide circumferential area, the sensor maintains a stable reference potential even when partially fouled, extending calibration cycles and preventing unscheduled instrument downs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Performance Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIntegrated PT1000 RTD Element:\u003c\/b\u003e Positioned internally near the glass measuring membrane to deliver rapid, low-drift temperature compensation directly to your pH transmitter, preventing slope errors as process temperatures shift.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDual 3\/4\" NPT Thread Configuration:\u003c\/b\u003e Features tapered 3\/4\" NPT threads on both the front and rear of the ABS body. This dual-ended threading provides exceptional installation flexibility, allowing the sensor to be mounted directly inline inside a process pipe or threaded onto the end of an immersion conduit for deep basin submersion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAg\/AgCl Reference with Solid Dielectric:\u003c\/b\u003e Utilizes a robust silver\/silver chloride reference couple paired with a highly stable solid dielectric gel, which prevents reference \"poisoning\" from heavy metals, sulfides, and active process halides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e10-Metre Low-Noise Shielded Cable:\u003c\/b\u003e Supplied with a high-impedance, shielded cable designed to protect the micro-volt signals of the pH measuring circuit from EMI\/RFI interference generated by nearby pumps, VSDs, and agitators.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCritical Field Installation \u0026amp; Maintenance Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure metrological integrity and avoid early mechanical failures, field technicians must adhere to the following installation protocols:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe 15° Angle Rule:\u003c\/b\u003e Like all combined pH probes, the SUP-pH6001 must be installed at an angle of at least 15° above the horizontal plane (with the electrode tip pointing down). Installing the sensor horizontally or upside-down allows internal air bubbles to migrate into the glass tip, breaking the internal electrical path and causing the transmitter to drift off-scale.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eABS Thread Torque Management:\u003c\/b\u003e Unlike stainless steel or metal fittings, ABS plastic threads can crack if over-torqued into a metal female port. Technicians must apply adequate PTFE thread tape and hand-tighten the sensor, followed by no more than 1 to 1.5 additional turns with an appropriate wrench. Do not use liquid pipe dopes, as they can degrade the ABS plastic or coat the reference junction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReference Hydration:\u003c\/b\u003e If a process line is drained for maintenance, the pH sensor must not be allowed to dry out. Exposure to air for extended periods dehydrates the sensitive gel layer on the glass bulb, causing sluggish response times or permanent calibration loss. Always cover the sensor with the protective cap filled with 3.3 M KCl solution during storage. \u003ci\u003eNever use demineralised or distilled water for storage.\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eParameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eOperational Specification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeasurement Range\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 to 12 pH (Optimized for standard industrial ranges)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eZero Potential Point\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEo = 7.00 pH (±0.25 pH)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntegrated Temperature Sensor\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePT1000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcess Temperature Range\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 80°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaximum Pressure Resistance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e≤0.4 MPa (4 Bar) at 25°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eReference System\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAg\/AgCl with solid dielectric and cyclic tetrafluoro salt bridge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eLiquid Junction Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLarge-area annular Teflon (PTFE)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eShell Material\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImpact-Resistant ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcess Connections\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual 3\/4\" NPT threads (front and rear)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eSensor Dimensions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eφ25 x 165 mm (diameter x length)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCable Assembly\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-metre standard, shielded low-noise instrument cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompliance \u0026amp; Quality\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCE, RoHS, ISO 9001\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Supmea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129404375211,"sku":"ICP-PAP-370-E100-PT1K","price":500.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/6385\/8091\/files\/Supmeaph-6001_1.png?v=1779840838","url":"https:\/\/www.instore.nz\/products\/supmea-sup-ph6001-plastic-body-industrial-ph-sensor","provider":"inStore Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
