SPECIAL SHIPPING DETAILS: Please note that reference electrodes always ship separately. \u00a0Special shipping arrangements may be required to process your order if you purchase a reference electrode.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t

\r\n\t\t

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS: Additional fees may be applied to cover the costs of shipping the single junction mercury oxide reference electrode. \u00a0This electrode also may not be available for sale in all countries.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t

\r\n\t\t

LEAD TIME: This product carries a standard lead time of 3 weeks from the receipt of payment.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t

MERCURY DISCLOSURE: To function properly, this electrode necessarily contains a small amount of mercury.\u00a0 The maximum amount of mercury in this electrode is 1.8 grams.\u00a0 See SDS Forms tab for safety information.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t

Avoid using this reference electrode with the following: acids, cations that will form insoluble hydroxides, and non-aqueous\/organic solvents<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n\tThe standard single junction mercury oxide (Hg\/HgO) reference electrode is filled with 4.24M KOH solution. \u00a0The body of this reference electrode is composed of PTFE, polypropylene (PP), and polyethylene (PE) and contains no glass, making it ideal for use in alkaline electrochemical systems.<\/p>\n

The reference electrode fits through the standard 14\/20 ground glass joints found on our standard electrochemical cells<\/a>. \u00a0A PTFE\u00a0sleeve (included) facilitates mounting the reference electrode in the joint.<\/p>\n

The junction at the lower end\u00a0of the reference electrode is a PE frit that should be kept wet at all times. \u00a0Be advised: the PE frit on the mercury oxide reference electrode has a higher leak rate than a typical ceramic frit found on most other reference electrodes. \u00a0It may not be uncommon to notice the fill solution has drained after some time in storage. \u00a0Periodic refilling of the fill solution may be required and can be considered part of normal operation and care of this reference electrode.<\/p>\n

An extra storage bottle of fill solution is not included with the single junction mercury oxide reference electrode for safety purposes during shipping. \u00a0Users may need to prepare their own 4.24M KOH solution for refilling reference electrode.<\/p>\n

If frit dries out, soak overnight in distilled water. \u00a0More information about care, storage, and usage can be found in the product information sheet, which you can download from the Documentation tab. \u00a0Additionally, the tip and frit for the single junction mercury oxide reference electrode is a separate threaded part and can be replaced without needing to purchase a whole new electrode. \u00a0Should just the frit need replacing, that part may be purchased separately. \u00a0See pricing table for part number and details.<\/p>\n
