Accurate measurement of effective ion concentration in the lab Measuring effective ion concentration with ion selective electrodes (ISEs) is important in applications such as wastewater, drinking water, environmental testing, and the food/beverage industry. The TruLine series of combination ISEs is designed to meet the most demanding challenges of determining effective ion concentration in the laboratory setting.

Accurate measurement of effective ion concentration in the lab Measuring effective ion concentration with ion selective electrodes (ISEs) is important in applications such as wastewater, drinking water, environmental testing, and the food/beverage industry. The TruLine series of combination ISEs is designed to meet the most demanding challenges of determining effective ion concentration in the laboratory setting. The TruLine ISEs can be connected to the YSI TruLab 1320(P), the YSI MultiLab 4010-2 (with BNC adapter), the YSI MultiLab 4010-3 (with BNC adapter), and other ISE instruments that feature BNC connection. The TruLine ISEs are refillable and feature a built-in double-junction reference system, allowing for a long electrode life and optimum performance in the lab.
