Zinsser is your trusted source for pH tools used in Chemical Manufacturing, Food and Beverage, Water Treatment, Biotechnology, Agriculture, and more.
Zinsser’s pH Meter Automation: How Does It Work?
Initially, the selection process involves choosing a pH probe. We have a wide range of tools to choose from depending on what we need. We use a robot gripper to move the probe to where we want to measure. We connect the probe to a small pH meter, as a part of our automated lab systems.
When not in use, we systematically place the pH probe in a designated location on the robot's deck. It stays in a bottle of liquid called a buffer to keep it ready. We also have a machine that cleans and dries the probe between measurements.
If we want to do more with the automated pH meter, we can add a feature to adjust the pH. This feature has two pumps near the robot, one for adding acid and the other for adding base.
When we measure the pH, the software decides if we need to add acid or base to get to the desired pH, which the user sets. We repeat this process until we reach the target pH. If needed, we can use a magnetic stirrer to mix things up after adding acid or base.
pH Measurement in Liquid Handling: Enhancing Process Accuracy
The integration of automation in liquid handling marks a significant advancement for several crucial reasons. This technology ensures precise and consistent management of liquids, reducing the risk of errors that could impact outcomes, including those related to pH adjustment. This level of accuracy is particularly vital in industries where even minor deviations can have significant consequences.
Our range of pH Automation Systems enables companies to fully automate various tasks, such as liquid handling, powder management, weighing, temperature control, mixing, pressurization, vacuum processes, and more. These systems empower businesses to configure a solution tailored to their specific needs.
