Low electrolyte leakage, stable potential with low resistance

Dri-Ref™ reference electrodes were developed by WPI to have extremely low electrolyte leak­age properties, hence the name “Dri-Ref.” In addition to this key feature, these electrodes exhibit stable and reproducible potential and low resistance. Stored in KCl when not in use, they have a long life expectancy.

Features

  • 450 um diameter
  • Extremely low electrolyte leakage
  • Stable, reproducible potential with low resistance
  • Chemically resistant to strong acids and bases

Benefits

  • May be used with ion selective electrodes without contamination from the reference electrode

Applications

  • Small volume, low salt concentration measurement (SDR)

May be used with ion selective electrodes

Although the internal filling solution contains KCI, the low fluid leakage means Dri-Ref may be used in combination with ion selective electrodes, including those for K+ and Cl-, without significant contamination from the reference electrode.
The Dri-Ref electrodes are chemically resistant to strong acids and alkalines. Dri-Ref electrodes are not suitable for use in organic solvents. In addition, the long, thin FLEXREF may be easily manipulated to accommodate a difficult experimental setup.

SUPER-Dri-Ref â€“ With a diameter of 2mm, SUPER-Dri-Ref does not leak electrolyte at all. Exhibiting the electrical stability of a classic flow­ing junction reference cell, this electrode exhibits low re­sis­tance and a stable half-cell po­ten­tial es­sen­tial­ly in­de­pen­dent of sample electrolyte concentration. SUPER-Dri-Ref is ideal for small vol­ume and low salt concentration mea­sure­ments.

Micro-Reference Electrode â€“ Only 450 µm in diameter and one inch long, the new DRIREF-450 reference elec­trode can be used along with other sensors in space-restricted areas and very small sam­ple vol­umes.

Luer-Tip Reference â€“ The male luer fitting at the front of the DRIREF-L allows it to be easily connected to a female luer port.
