Electrode Amplifier

(Order Code EA-BTA)


Use our Electrode Amplifier to collect data with
almost any electrode that has a BNC connector. This
includes electrodes from Vernier such as our pH
electrode (order code 7120B), or third-party
electrodes, such as pH, ISE (ion-selective electrode), or ORP (oxidation-reduction
potential). The Electrode Amplifier can produce an output in mV, pH (when using a
pH electrode), or you can perform your own 2-point, linear calibration.

How the Electrode Amplifier Works


The Electrode Amplifier is a circuit that allows the millivolt output of the electrode
to be monitored by an interface. The electrode is connected to the BNC connector on
one end of the amplifier. The cable from the Electrode Amplifier connects to the
interface.
The Electrode Amplifier amplifies the voltage produced by an electrode into a range
where it can be monitored by the lab interface.
The Electrode Amplifier will report values in units of pH. If an ORP or ISE
electrode is attached, however, you can choose to read in units of mV. Custom,
linear 2-point calibrations can also be performed if desired.

Collecting Data with the Electrode Amplifier


This sensor can be used with the following interfaces to collect data.
Vernier LabQuest 2 or original LabQuest as a standalone device or with a
computer
Vernier LabQuest Mini with a computer
Vernier LabPro with a computer or TI graphing calculator
Vernier Go!Link
Vernier EasyLink
Vernier SensorDAQ
CBL 2
TI-Nspire Lab Cradle

Here is the general procedure to follow when using the Electrode Amplifier:
1. Connect the Electrode Amplifier to the interface.
2. Connect an electrode that has a BNC connector to the Electrode Ampilier.
3. Start the data-collection software.
4. The software will identify the Electrode Amplifier and load a default
data-collection setup for a pH electrode. Note: You can change the units to mV in
the software. You are now ready to collect data.

Data-Collection Software
This sensor can be used with an interface and the following data-collection software.
Logger Pro This computer program is used with LabQuest 2, LabQuest,
LabQuest Mini, LabPro, or Go!Link.
Logger Lite This computer program is used with LabQuest 2, LabQuest,
LabQuest Mini, LabPro, or Go!Link.
LabQuest App This program is used when LabQuest 2 or LabQuest is used as a
standalone device.
DataQuest Software for TI-Nspire This calculator application for the
TI-Nspire can be used with the EasyLink or TI-Nspire Lab Cradle.
EasyData App This calculator application for the TI-83 Plus and TI-84 Plus can
be used with CBL 2, LabPro, and Vernier EasyLink. We recommend version
2.0 or newer, which can be downloaded from the Vernier web site,
www.vernier.com/easy/easydata.html, and then transferred to the calculator. See
the Vernier web site, www.vernier.com/calc/software/index.html for more
information on the App and Program Transfer Guidebook.
DataMate program Use DataMate with LabPro or CBL 2 and TI-73, TI-83,
TI-84, TI-86, TI-89, and Voyage 200 calculators. See the LabPro and CBL 2
Guidebooks for instructions on transferring DataMate to the calculator.
LabVIEW National Instruments LabVIEW software is a graphical
programming language sold by National Instruments. It is used with SensorDAQ
and can be used with a number of other Vernier interfaces. See
www.vernier.com/labview for more information
