Description

The Pocket pH Meter YG1760 (and YG1760-1) is a compact, waterproof pH tester designed for professionals who need fast, accurate measurements anywhere. With its pen-sized design (148×29×14mm) and IP57-rated durability, this meter is built to withstand field conditions, including splashes and dust. It delivers high-precision readings (±0.05 pH for YG1760-1) with a measuring range of -1.00 to 15.00 pH and automatic temperature compensation (0–60°C) for reliable results in varying environments.

Key features include 1-3 point calibration (pH 4.00/7.00/9.18 buffers), automatic power-off, and a low-voltage alarm, ensuring long battery life from its two CR2032 lithium batteries. The replaceable electrode extends the device’s lifespan, making it a cost-effective choice for frequent users. Priced as an affordable, mid-range portable pH meter, it’s perfect for field researchers, hydroponic growers, pool maintenance crews, and food safety inspectors.

Frequently Asked Questions

•  Is this pH meter waterproof?  Yes! Its IP57 rating means it can handle splashes and brief submersion, making it ideal for outdoor and industrial use.
• How often should I calibrate it? For best accuracy, calibrate before each use or weekly, depending on frequency. The 3-point calibration ensures reliable readings.
• Can I replace the electrode? Absolutely—the replaceable electrode saves money compared to buying a whole new meter.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages

Ultra-Portable – Fits in a pocket or tool belt, perfect for fieldwork and mobile testing.
High Accuracy (±0.05 pH on YG1760-1) – Comparable to benchtop models in a handheld device.
Durable & Waterproof (IP57) – Survives harsh conditions where other meters fail.

Disadvantages

Small Screen – Less visibility than larger lab models, though still clear for quick checks.
Manual Calibration Required – No auto-recognition of buffers like premium models.
Limited Temp Range (0–60°C) – Not ideal for extremely hot/cold samples without cooling/heating.

Product Use in the Field

This pocket pH meter is a go-to tool for agriculture (soil testing), aquaculture (water quality), breweries (fermentation control), and food processing (safety compliance). Its quick-response probe is ideal for spot-checking pH in pools, hydroponics, and wastewater treatment plants, where portability and durability matter most.

Recommendations

To maintain accuracy, always rinse the electrode with distilled water after use and store it in a protective cap with storage solution. For long-term reliability, avoid exposing the meter to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
