Buying pH electrodes shouldn't be Chances are the last time you ordered pH electrodes you looked at the broken ones a n d ^ i just reordered the same old thing. Now there is a better way to go. Why should you spend valuable time poring over a bunch of catalogues ? At Micro Sensors, we've recog nized what a complicated mess it can be—different electrodes for different applica tions. As a result we have designed a line of pH electrodes that can
be used with virtually all pH meters, domestic or imported. And we can supply you with specs that are designed to solve your problems at very compe titive prices. We have a new full color brochure with a comprehensive cross-reference chart to help simplify your r/ inventory problems. The next time you are fishing for electrodes, drop us a line.
