Your online guide to pH measurement


all about ph
The objective of this site is to explain everything you need to know about pH measurement.

I had the pleasure in my previous job to give courses in this area of measurement techniques. It was fun and I met many nice people. One thing I found out was that most people appreciate a simple and a less scientific approach, regardless of level of education. My hope is that I have succeeded to include this insight when I built this site.


Why measure pH?

• It is a critical measurement in industries ranging from chemical processing, pulp and paper, food and beverage and biotechnology.

• To test a chemical against a specification. To ensure product quality.

• To test a sample against a legal requirement.

• It is of outstanding importance in water and environmental analysis.

• Prevent damage to materials and humans.

and more. . . . .


At this site you will, among others, learn to:

- understand the theory behind the measurement.

- understand the function of the sensor and meter.

- pick the right sensor.

- handle and maintain your sensor.

- calibrate and understand why calibration is needed.

- make proper measurements.

- recognize and avoid common problems.
