Construction

The complete reference electrode (RE) 43

43 comprises two parts:

6.0728.0X0

Ag/AgCl reference system (122

122)

with ceramic diaphragm type D, diameter = 1 mm
6.0728.020 Reference system: Ag/AgCl/c(KCl) = 3 mol/L;

supplied in a holder filled with c(KCl) = 3 mol/L

as standard

6.0728.010 Reference system: Ag/AgCl

supplied dry (option)

6.1245.010

Electrolyte vessel (123

123)

with ceramic diaphragm type D, diameter=3 mm;

holds a second electrolyte solution (bridge

electrolyte) and thus forms with the 6.0728.020

Reference system a complete reference electrode

in the so-called double junction construction.

The construction of the reference electrode and the designations of the individual

parts are shown in Fig. 17.
