Product Name: Fiber Optic pH Sensors
Product Description
The Fiber Optic pH Sensor system consists of a fiber optic probe designed to hold immobilized colorimetric indicator dye materials, plus a light source, spectrometer and OOISensors Software. You can supply your own indicator material, or select from our line of transparent or reflective films. Calibration involves recording spectra in high and low pH samples, and in at least one pH standard such as a NIST-traceable buffer.
Transmissive and Reflective pH Films
Transmissive films are for clean, transparent samples. These films consist of a cellulose mechanical matrix surrounded by a hydrophilic polymer that entraps the indicator dye. Reflective films are used for turbid or absorbing media.
Film Performance
When immersed in water, the film dyes may leach very slowly over time and will have to be replaced. The film response rate is slow (on the order of minutes), being limited by diffusion of ions into the material. Increasing stirring speed, ionic strength and temperature all tend to increase the response rate and do not affect the pH measurement. Nearly any aqueous sample environment is suitable, as are some solvents.
TP300 Probe
The TP300-UV-VIS Probe is a chemically intert PEEK tranmission probe that can be equipped with a tip (see RT-PH at right) for mounting transmissive films in the optical path. Light is directed via one fiber through the mounted film to a mirror. Then light is redirected back through the film to a receive fiber that returns the light to the spectrometer. The sample is free to flow over the sides of the film. By using an RTP-2-10 (adjustable 2-10 mm) Transmission Tip, the TP300-UV-VIS can be used for routine transmission measurements.

RF200 Probe
The RFP200-UV-VIS Reflective Film Probe consists of a 6-around-1 fiber bundle in a chemically inert 6.35-mm OD Torlon body. The open tip of the probe screws onto the body to hold 3.17-mm to 4.76-mm discs of reflective indicator material. The 6-fiber leg attaches to the light source; the central fiber leg connects to the spectrometer. The sample has access to the sensing material from one side only.
