A pH meter is a scientific instrument that measures the hydrogen-ion activity in
water-based solutions, indicating its acidity or alkalinity expressed as pH. ... The difference in
electrical potential relates to the acidity or pH of the solution.
In the process world, pH is an important parameter to be measured and controlled.
The pH of a solution indicates how acidic or basic (alkaline) it is.... sensor, which includes a
measuring electrode, a reference electrode, and a temperature sensor; a preamplifier; and an
analyser or transmitter.
