Vernier LabPro Water Quality Starter Kit

The Vernier LabPro interface is the heart of our data-collection system, offering unparalleled power, flexibility, portability, and ease of use at an affordable price. To collect data, simply connect LabPro to your computer or handheld device, plug in one of our sensors, and start the data-collection program. The program automatically detects which sensors are connected.

• The rugged and durable temperature probe has a sealed stainless steel shaft and tip that can be used in organic liquids, salt solutions, acids, and bases. This probe is the same as the probe shipped with CBL 2™.

• The pH Sensor is a Ag-AgCl combination electrode with a range of 0 to 14 pH units. This high quality electrode has many uses in chemistry, biology, and middle school classes, as well as water quality monitoring.

• You can make fast, accurate measurements of dissolved oxygen concentration in water samples using our Dissolved Oxygen Probe. This probe has a range of 0 to 14 mg/L (ppm) of dissolved oxygen. It has built-in temperature compensation, which means you can do your calibrations in the lab, and then make measurements outdoors without having to recalibrate. The probe has a fast response time, reaching 95% of full reading in 30 seconds. This probe is great for biology, chemistry, ecology, or integrated science courses.

• The Conductivity probe is great for environmental testing for salinity, total dissolved solids (TDS), or conductivity in water samples. Biology teachers can use this probe to demonstrate diffusion of ions through membranes or to monitor changes in ion levels in aquatic systems. Chemistry students can use it to investigate the difference between ionic and molecular compounds, strong and weak acids, or ionic compounds that yield different ratios of ions. The Conductivity Probe can monitor concentration or conductivity at three different sensitivity settings.

• Use our Turbidity Sensor to measure the turbidity of freshwater or seawater samples. Its small, sleek design and simple setup make it easy to use at the collection site or when you return to the classroom. The Turbidity Sensor measures turbidity in NTU (the standard unit used by most water collection agencies and organizations). Calibration can be done in about one minute using a high quality Hach StablCal® 100 NTU standard (included). Also included is a high-grade glass cuvette for the water sample to be measured.
