Hanna GroLine Soil pH Tester - HI981030

We believe that buying a tester should be simple. Your Soil pH Tester is equipped with everything you need for successful testing right out of the box.

The HI981030 GroLine Soil pH Tester is designed to directly measure soil pH for environmental, agricultural testing.

(±0.05 pH accuracy)

Specialised electrode for spot checking the pH of soil and soil slurries.

Comes with everything necessary to start measuring right away

Better Features for Better Testing:

An onscreen stability indicator ensures the highest level of confidence in your results. The selectable auto-off feature prolongs battery life for peace-of-mind and energy savings if the meter is accidentally left on.

Pocket Sized:

The compact size makes the Soil pH Tester ideal for on-the-go testing. A large LCD display provides at-a-glance readings from any angle and single button operation streamlines the testing process for any user.

Long Battery Life:

The included CR2032 Li-ion battery provides up to 1000 hours of continuous use. The battery icon will blink to let you know when it is time to change the battery so you never miss a measurement.

PVDF Body with a Removable Sleeve

Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) is a food-grade plastic that is resistant to abrasion and chemical solvent. The PVDF outer junction sleeve can be removed and cleaned. Once cleaned, adding a small amount of supplied gel electrolyte refreshes the junction, improving measurement speed, and extending the life of the tester.

Unique Open Junction Reference:

The open junction design consists of a solid gel interface between the soil sample and the internal Ag/AgCl reference. The junction can be refreshed by remove the sleeve for quick cleaning and new electrolyte.

Cleaning Solution for Soil and Humus Deposits:

Your Soil pH Tester comes with cleaning solution that has been engineered to keep your electrode free from organic materials found in soil. This concentrated combination of detergents cleans your tester quickly and effectively so that your tester stays in optimum condition.

pH 4 & 7 Buffer Sachets:

When performing a pH calibration it is important that the correct buffers are used. We include some start buffers to get you going. The single-use sachets are individually sealed so you use fresh buffer each time you calibrate.   

Storage Solution:

Proper storage of your electrode will ensure reliable measurements and a long electrode life. Our storage solution is specially formulated to keep the pH glass hydrated while minimising organic growth.

Attention Valued Customer:

Ph testers and Ph probes are sensitive scientific equipment. They will require extra care and maintenance from the user (you) to ensure accurate readings, measurements and valid warranties.

Ph testers (without replaceable probes) and Ph probes are electrical sensors and considered a consumable item. You should aim to be replacing these over time as you do media, nutrients, etc. Probes and Pens (without replaceable probes) only have a 6-month warranty from date of purchase and will not be honoured without receipt of purchase.

Probes and Pens with proper care can last for years, but as it is a live charge in the electrode it can be finished from 6 months. More so, if correct care procedures have not been maintained. Hydroponic nutrients in particular degrade Ph probes much faster than other disciplines.

Probes must always be re-hydrated before use in storage solution, available for purchase in store

Probes must be kept in storage solution when not in use (in tank monitors excepted)
