odes pH Electrodes pH Electrodes pH Electrodes pH Electrodes pH
Standard S8 Metric Cap
This FermProbe
®
style features a standard S8 detachable cable connec-
tion on a metric threaded polymer cap that allows the electrode to
be used with European style electrode housings. The standard
metric cap is a newer autoclavable design that protects the
connector pin from breakage. The design requires the
rotation of the electrode during installation. It is
compatible with Euro-designed housings requiring
a metric Pg13.5 threaded electrode
cap.
K9 Metric Cap
The original K9 autoclavable cap design is still used in many exist-
ing bioprocess systems. This FermProbe
®
style features a K9
detachable cable connection on a metric threaded polymer
cap that allows the electrode to be used with European
style electrode housings. The design requires the rota-
tion of the electrode during installation. It is com-
patible with Euro-designed housings requiring
a metric Pg13.5 threaded electrode cap.
T-Pull
®
Cap
The T-Pull handle eases installation and removal of the electrode from
the housing and greatly reduces fatigue of the extension cable. The
electrode can be removed from the housing without rotating the
electrode and twisting the cable. Also, the retainer nut is part of
the handle and cannot be lost or misplaced. This FermProbe
®
style has a standard S8 detachable cable connection on
a metric threaded polymer cap that allows it to be
used with European style electrode housings.
