Apera Instruments Premium Series PH60S Spear pH Pocket Tester Kit for Food/Solid/Viscous Samplings

Apera Instruments Premium Series PH60S Spear pH Pocket Tester Kit

The Apera PH60S is a professional pocket pH meter purpose-built for direct pH measurement in solid, semi-solid, and viscous samples — no slurry preparation required. Featuring a Swiss spear-tip pH electrode, 3-color backlit LCD, IP67 waterproof rating, and up to 2000-hour battery life, it delivers lab-grade accuracy for food production, quality control, research, and general water testing.

Key Features

Direct Spear Testing for Solid & Semi-Solid Samples: Measure pH directly in cheese, meat, fruit, dough, sushi rice, jam, sauces, yogurt, skincare products, and other viscous or solid samples — without making slurries.
Swiss Spear pH Electrode: Highly robust spear-tip sensor with an open double junction (no diaphragm) and long-life polymer gel reference system for fast, precise results in direct solid sample testing. Fully replaceable for extended meter lifespan.
Accurate in Both Solids and Liquids: Optimized for food and semi-solid samples, yet performs equally well in general water solutions.
Easy 1–3 Point Auto Calibration: Intelligent automatic calibration with built-in recognition of 5 buffer types (1.68, 4.00, 7.00, 10.01, 12.46) for maximum-range accuracy.
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC): Accurate measurements from 0–50°C (32–122°F) across varying test conditions.
3-Color Backlit LCD: Large, easy-to-read display with 180° viewing angle. Blue = measuring, Green = calibration, Red = high/low reading alert. Dual display of pH & temperature with stability and calibration indicators.
Reading Alarm Function: Screen turns red instantly when measurements exceed preset high/low limits — ideal for quality control and food safety.
IP67 Waterproof & Floatable: Fully submersible and dust-sealed for food production, field, and lab environments.
2000-Hour Battery Life: DC 3V via 4× AAA batteries with low-battery warning and auto power-off after 8 minutes of inactivity.
Complete Ready-to-Use Kit: Includes pH 4.00, 7.00 & 10.01 calibration buffers, 3M KCl storage solution, calibration vials, batteries, lanyard, and premium carrying case.
