Ohaus Aquasearcher AB33EC-F Benchtop Conductivity Meter Kit

Ohaus Aquasearcher AB33EC-F Benchtop Conductivity Meter with STCON7 Probe

The Ohaus Aquasearcher AB33EC Benchtop Conductivity Meter is a highly reliable, user-friendly solution delivering accurate conductivity, TDS, salinity, and resistivity measurements for standard lab applications. Engineered with the intelligent i-Steward system at its core, the AB33EC ensures repeatable and consistent measurement accuracy through real-time electrode/probe condition monitoring, "Electrode Dirty/Broken" alerts, and calibration due reminders that provide optimal peace of mind for laboratory personnel conducting conductivity measurements. The meter measures conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, resistivity, and temperature with advanced features including selectable reference temperatures of 20°C or 25°C for temperature-compensated conductivity readings, linear curve options, and automatic temperature compensation with adjustable linear compensation coefficient that ensures accurate results across diverse sample types and temperature ranges. Compatibility with both 2-cell and 4-cell conductivity probes with selectable cell constants enables measurements from ultrapure water to sewage applications, while the adjustable TDS factor allows customization based on sample type for precise total dissolved solids determination.

Designed for reliability and ease of use in busy laboratory environments, the AB33EC features a large 6.5-inch segment and dot matrix LCD display with backlight, on-screen text prompts, menu-specific function keys, and multi-language interface that makes changing parameters, executing setup, and performing calibration as simple as using a smartphone. Multifunctional capacitive touch keypads with three context-sensitive keys that change based on current use ensure buttons are never clogged with sample residue while enabling most operations to be completed within three simple steps for fast, efficient workflow. Auto-endpoint mode (Auto-Stop holds stable readings, Continuous displays changing readings) streamlines measurement procedures, while the meter's 1,000-item memory stores conductivity measurements and calibration trail data with associated date and time stamps for efficient documentation and traceability supporting quality control protocols and regulatory requirements. Standard RS232 and USB interfaces (included) enable seamless connection to external devices such as printers and computers for expanded data transfer and storage capabilities, while the adjustable standalone electrode holder provides full flexibility for accommodating different conductivity probe types and optimizing workspace configuration. Constructed with durable ABS housing and operating on AC adapter (included), the Aquasearcher AB33EC combines innovative design with versatile conductivity measurement capabilities, making it the ideal solution for water quality testing, environmental monitoring, industrial process control, educational laboratories, and research environments requiring reliable, accurate conductivity, TDS, salinity, and resistivity measurements with comprehensive data management capabilities.

Key Differences Between AB33EC, AB33PH, and AB33M1 Benchtop Meters

1. Measurement Parameters:

• AB33PH: Measures pH, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and temperature - designed specifically for acidity/alkalinity and redox potential measurements using pH electrodes.
• AB33EC: Measures conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, resistivity, and temperature - designed for ionic content and dissolved solids measurements using conductivity probes.
• AB33M1: Measures all seven parameters (pH, ORP, conductivity, TDS, salinity, resistivity, and temperature) - a comprehensive multi-parameter system with two independent measuring channels that can work simultaneously.

2. Channel Capability and Versatility:

• AB33PH and AB33EC: Single-channel instruments dedicated to one measurement type (pH/ORP or conductivity-based parameters) - ideal for laboratories focused on specific testing requirements.
• AB33M1: Dual-channel instrument allowing simultaneous measurement of different parameters (e.g., pH and conductivity at the same time) - ideal for laboratories requiring comprehensive water quality analysis and maximum efficiency with one meter replacing multiple instruments.

In Summary: Choose the AB33PH for pH/ORP-only applications, the AB33EC for conductivity/TDS/salinity-only applications, or the AB33M1 for comprehensive multi-parameter water quality analysis with the advantage of two independent channels operating simultaneously. All three meters share the same user-friendly 6.5-inch touchscreen display, i-Steward monitoring system, three-step operation, 1,000-item memory, and dual RS232/USB connectivity.
