What Are the Main Components of a pH Controller System?

Blog

If you need to be able to maintain proper pH levels within your facility, then you might need to invest in a pH controller. You might have heard that these devices are commonly used in facilities like yours, and you might be interested in implementing the use of one in your own facility, too. However, before you actually invest in a pH controller system, you might want to know about how they work. One thing you might want to know about is the main components of a pH controller system. Although these systems do vary, these are some of the primary components that make up pH controller systems and help them work.

Probe 

First of all, a pH controller system has to have a measuring device that can check the pH levels in the first place. After all, without knowing what the pH levels are in a liquid, then you can't possibly know if adjustments need to be made or what those adjustments should be. The right pH controller probe is very accurate at measuring pH levels. Since the probe itself has to come in contact with liquids that could be used for making food and beverage products, then it's important for them to be sterile and food grade.

Chemicals

In order to balance pH levels, you will need to use certain chemicals that will allow you to get the job done. Sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid are two of the most common chemicals that are used for this purpose, but there are other chemicals that can be used to get the job done, too. Your pH controller system will need to have storage tanks that hold the chemicals, and you will need to be sure that they are kept properly filled. Then, when chemicals are needed to balance pH, you will not have to worry about your pH controller system not having the chemicals that are needed for the job.

Controller

Of course, your pH controller system will obviously need to have a controller itself. This is the component of the system that actually controls whether or not chemicals are dispensed to level out pH levels. When you have a properly functioning pH controller, then you shouldn't have to worry about manually doing the work to balance out pH levels.

As you can see, there are a few basic components that are required in order to make a pH controller work. If you purchase one of these systems and make sure that each of these components works like they are supposed to, then you should have the system that you need in order to maintain a proper balance of pH levels.

Understanding Aspects of Industrial Supply

Gaining a good understanding of industrial supplies can really help a man to get ahead. I'm Jo and while I do not work directly in the industrial equipment or supply business, I have learnt a lot from my brother who works in a large factory in Sydney. I would often spend weekends down there watching the guys at work. Now and again, my brother would ask me to help him out so we could try and find a good deal on a new piece of kit. I did it, and I learnt a lot while I did it. I hope you like my blog.
