These LowProfile reference electrodes are useful for many applications and well-suited for use with our Screen-Printed Electrode Cell Kit and our Low Volume Cell Series. The low cost of these reference electrodes also make them ideal for nearly any aqueous-based application. These electrodes are permanently sealed with a KCl gel electrolyte, comprised of a mixture of potassium chloride, glycerol, and cellulose gum. Each electrode includes an O-ring. We offer this electrode in several lengths.

Compatibility Notice
Avoid using this reference electrode with the following: NH3 buffers, sulfides, perchlorates, non-aqueous/organic solvents, and alkaline solutions stronger than 0.1M OH–.
Thermal Stability Range: 10°C - 80°C
Electrode damage may occur at temperatures beyond recommended range. This range is provided for electrodes with PEEK shrouds.
Best Practice Suggestion: Employ a Laboratory Master Reference Electrode
A master reference electrode is a pristine, unused electrode kept exclusively to verify the accuracy of your active laboratory electrodes. By periodically measuring the potential difference between your everyday electrodes and the master in a shared electrolyte solution, you can quickly detect degradation and prevent experimental errors. To maintain its reliability as your ultimate baseline, the master electrode must never be used in actual experiments.
