TRANSCRIPT
EMBEDDABLE REFERENCE ELECTRODEFOR CONCRETE APPLICATIONS
Application
Silvion silver/silver chloride reference electrodes have, since 1985, been recognised by many as the highest quality silver chloride electrodes available. Constructed using advanced techniques which result in a porous silver matrix around a wire skeleton they provide a significantly higher electrode surface area than traditional electrodes constructed of silver wire which enhances both life and stability.
Silvion embeddable reference electrodes are designed specifically for installing in high alkaline and possibly chloride contaminated reinforced concrete structures. A predetermined chloride ion concentration is maintained in an inert electrolyte compatible with the silver/silver chloride element. Ionic continuity to the environment is ensured via a micro-porous sintered disc.
Availability
Three basic models of electrode are available depending upon the life required.
