•
The HI 4013 requires the Hanna HI 5315 Double
junction reference electrode with HI 7078 as external
electrolyte.
•
Hanna HI 4222 pH/ISE/mV meter or other suitable
ion or pH/mV meter (Note: log/linear graph paper is
useful if an ISE (ion) meter is not available).
•
Hanna HI 180 magnetic stirrer or equivalent with
magnetic stirring bars (Note: Isolate beakers from stir-
rer motor heat by placing insulating material such as
foam or cork between them).
•
Hanna HI 76404 electrode holder or equivalent.
•
Plastic beakers (HI 740036P) or other suitable mea-
surement vessel.
