Electrode manufacturing - behind the scenes at Radiometer Analytical
Electrode manufacturing - behind the scenes at Radiometer Analytical
Radiometer Analytical offers a range of more than 300 electrodes - combined pH, glass or reference electrodes, metal electrodes, ion-selective electrodes and conductivity cells - for every application and budget. Many electrodes in the range feature Red Rod technology - a unique concept developed by Radiometer Analytical, which ensures fast response time across a wide temperature range. Electrodes are manufactured on our premises in Villeurbanne, France using a combination of traditional know-how and state-of-the-art technology. It takes between 2 and 11 days to manufacture a combined pH electrode, depending on the type. The most spectacular stage of the process is the blowing of the glass bulb from a blob of molten glass heated to 1200°C. To explain this little-known yet fascinating process, Radiometer Analytical has produced a fully illustrated technical article, which can be downloaded from our Internet Resource Center at http://www.radiometer-analytical.com/pr2.
