What is Causing This “Feature” in pH?
The data above originate from a SeaFET pH sensor connected to a flow-through system that should provide stable, consistent data. As you can see, the Internal pH value experiences a dramatic drop in pH and a subsequent increase in noise midway through data collection. The External pH values match samples from a spectrophotometer. Temperature remains stable during the shift in Internal pH, indicating that the flow-through system continued to provide a consistent seawater supply.
Can you determine what caused the sudden change in Internal pH for this SeaFET?

ISFET Circuit Explained
The ISFET is the secret sauce behind the stability and accuracy of the SeaFET V2 and SeapHOx V2. But what’s really going on that allows such a small component to measure pH, and what allows it to outperform classic glass electrodes? To learn more, watch our video explanation of the ISFET circuit to learn from one of Sea-Bird Scientific’s own Electrical Engineers.

Reliably Measuring pH
Although it’s barely the size of a breath mint, the Ag/AgCl reference allows the Deep SeapHOx V2 to dive deeper than any other pH sensor. Learn how a solid-state reference electrode allows the SeaFET V2, SeapHOx V2, and Deep SeapHOx V2 retain accuracy across a much broader range of temperature and pressure than standard pH sensors.
