Hanna HI4101 Ammonia Combination Ion Selective Electrode

Hanna HI4101 Ammonia Combination Ion Selective Electrode (ISE)

The Hanna HI4101 Ammonia Combination Ion Selective Electrode is a gas-sensing combination ion selective electrode designed to measure ammonia (NH₃) concentrations in aqueous solutions. With a built-in reference electrode and rugged body construction, this sensor offers a complete and convenient solution for precise ammonia analysis in water, wastewater, and environmental samples.

Key Features

• Wide Detection Range: The electrode measures ammonia across concentrations from 1 M to 1×10⁻⁶ M, which equates to 17,000 to 0.02 mg/L (ppm) or 14,000 to 0.016 mg/L as nitrogen (N). This broad range makes the HI4101 ideal for both high and trace-level detection.

• Gas-Sensing Combination Design: Unlike half-cells, the HI4101 combines both the sensing and reference elements in a single body, simplifying setup and reducing maintenance requirements.

• High pH Requirement: The electrode performs optimally in samples with pH >11, where free ammonia exists in gaseous form for accurate measurement.

• Stable Temperature Operation: With a working range of 0 to 40°C, the HI4101 provides reliable readings under typical laboratory and field conditions.

• Durable Delrin® Body: The chemical-resistant Delrin® construction enhances durability, ensuring long-lasting performance even in harsh chemical environments.

• Plug-and-Play Compatibility: The 1-meter coaxial cable with a BNC connector allows quick connection to most ion meters and portable instruments.
