WTW inoLab® Multi 9630 IDS SET K laboratory pH meter
The WTW inoLab® Multi 9630 IDS SET K laboratory pH meter is a precise, professional measuring instrument for demanding laboratory applications. It impresses with its multi-parameter capabilities, high measuring accuracy and robust design. Developed specifically for laboratories that require reliable measurements of pH, oxygen, conductivity and other parameters, this instrument is a versatile solution for water analysis, environmental monitoring or chemical research projects. Compared to similar measuring devices, it impresses with its extensive sensor compatibility, user-friendly colour display and intelligent calibration routines.
Versatile functions and easy handling
The measuring device offers a wide range of parameters, making it an indispensable tool in laboratory environments. Thanks to the three available measuring channels, different sensors can be operated simultaneously. This flexibility can be crucial, especially in quality assurance or research institutes where different parameters have to be recorded in parallel.
Another advantage is the large LCD colour graphic display, which provides a clear overview of measurement results and status information. You can immediately see which measured values are available and whether the calibration intervals have been met. If, for example, a calibration is due, the calibration timer reliably reminds you - this ensures consistently accurate measurement data.
The user-friendly menu navigation and stable interfaces (mini USB-B, USB-A) ensure that the device can be seamlessly integrated into your everyday laboratory routine. Data can be read out quickly, and thanks to the integrated logger, comprehensive documentation of your measured values is available at any time. The device can manually store up to 500 data sets and automatically record up to 10,000 measurements. Additional features: - High-resolution colour display for optimum clarity - Integrated timer function for regular calibrations (1-999 days)
- Compatibility with all WTW IDS sensors
- Automatic or manual data storage
- Robust housing for continuous laboratory operation
- Precise temperature compensation (for all parameters except redox)
- CE certified in accordance with relevant standards
In addition, the device enables automatic calibration with up to five calibration points for pH, up to seven points for ISE (depending on the adapter) and one point each for oxygen and conductivity. For turbid samples, up to three calibration points can be calibrated, which further increases accuracy.
Key technical information
- Measurement channels: 3
- Data memory: 500 data sets (manual), 10,000 data sets (automatic)
- Parameters: pH, mV, O? (saturation, concentration, partial pressure, BOD), conductivity (including salinity, TDS), temperature, turbidity
- Power supply: universal power supply
- Calibration points: pH (1-5), ISE (2-7, adapter required), O? (1), conductivity (1), turbidity (3)
- Certification: CE conformity
In addition to these points, further settings are available for practical use, such as the choice between manual or time-controlled measurement and storage. The device also supports secure data output to printers, as three drivers are pre-installed (see operating instructions). This means that the measuring device can be used not only for quantitative laboratory recording, but also for on-site printing of measurement results.
Typical areas of application
Thanks to its wide range of parameters, this laboratory device is suitable for numerous applications. These range from the precise analysis of drinking water and the monitoring of complex water treatment processes to research on chemical or biological samples. Environmental monitoring in particular benefits from the ability to determine oxygen and conductivity values in a single step. In the chemical industry, the device is valued for its ability to accurately measure the pH value in process solutions. The system is also very helpful for food producers who need to keep an eye on the water quality in their production lines. Specific examples of applications include:
- Water analysis in drinking and process water laboratories for parameters such as pH value, conductivity and dissolved oxygen. - Examination of river or lake water for changes in water quality (environmental monitoring). - Control of samples in chemical research, e.g. in pH-critical syntheses.
- Quality testing in food laboratories to ensure hygiene and process compliance.
FAQs
How often should the pH sensor be calibrated?
Depending on the frequency of use and the required accuracy, it is recommended to calibrate the sensor every few days at the latest. The device has a calibration timer that displays a reminder when a new calibration is due.
Which IDS sensors can I use?
You can connect all IDS-compatible sensors from WTW, such as those for pH, conductivity, oxygen and turbidity. The choice of sensor depends on your specific measurement requirements. How can I process my measurement data? With the two USB interfaces, you can conveniently transfer measurement data to a computer or, optionally, to a printer. The device supports both manual and automatic storage functions, allowing you to archive all data without gaps.
Do I need special accessories for redox measurements?
Since temperature compensation is not required for redox potential, it is best to use IDS sensors that are specialised for redox. An additional adapter may be required if you want to use analogue sensors.
