PH meter

Steve_210

Looking for a recommendation on a good pH meter.
Used to check pH levels on the condensing boilers with aluminum heat exchangers.
To measure pH level of the condensate after passing through the neutralizing tank.
And also to measure the pH levels of the water in steam boilers.
I would rather not mess with litmus paper, more than happy to spend the money on something that will work.
Thanks for any help

I've used a simple Hanna for years, calibrate it ever so many years with a known fluid sample.

try www.hannainst.com they have a closeout section with good prices if you want a more $$ version.

The Hanna is an excellent meter. Easy to use and accurate.

You buy a bottle of buffered control water when you purchase it. The solution comes in any PH you want. 7.0 is the most convenient. You just pour some into a small container and run the test. One bottle of solution can last you a lifetime.

All you need is a good refractometer and you will be the envy of all around you.

This one works nicely. If you drop it and the mirrors get out of alignment, you just send it back to them and they will repair and recalibrate it.
