Component Specifications

Definition
A precision-engineered enclosure designed to protect sensitive pH and conductivity sensor elements from environmental factors while maintaining measurement accuracy. It provides mechanical protection, chemical resistance, and proper mounting interfaces for industrial process monitoring applications.
Working Principle
The housing creates a controlled environment around the sensor electrodes, shielding them from physical damage, temperature fluctuations, and chemical exposure while allowing proper electrolyte contact through designated openings. It maintains consistent measurement conditions and prevents contamination of the sensing elements.
Materials
316L stainless steel, PTFE (Teflon), PEEK, or PVDF depending on chemical resistance requirements. Typically features IP67 or IP68 ingress protection rating.
Technical Parameters
  • Length 50-200 mm
  • Weight 50-300 g
  • Diameter 12-25 mm
  • Thread Type G1/2, NPT 1/2, or custom
  • Pressure Rating Up to 10 bar
  • Temperature Range -10°C to 80°C
Standards
ISO 15874, DIN 11864, ISO 11276
