Thermo Scientific™ Orion™ Pro Star MP218 pH/ion, Conductivity and DO Bench Meter

Orion Pro Star MP218 pH/ion, conductivity and dissolved oxygen bench meters are designed to provide accurate and reliable testing in laboratories that need a modern, easy-to-operate meter with advanced performance and reliable data reporting. Orion Pro Star bench meter benefits include:

• Large 7-in., high-resolution color display
• Responsive touchscreen operable with gloves
• Angled display to help ensure ergonomic viewing
• Streamlined, easy to operate user interface
• Vertical meter orientation helps optimize bench space
• Supports GLP compliance
• Stores 20 calibration logs per parameter with date and time
• Stores 10,000 data log sets with date and time
• Outputs to a printer, computer, or USB flash drive for long-term data retention
• Inputs sample ID with optional USB barcode scanner, USB keyboard or USB mouse
• Stirs samples with meter-controlled and meter-powered stirrer probes

Orion Pro Star MP218 multiparameter bench meters utilize three channels to offer the following measurements:

• pH, mV, ORP or ion concentration with temperature
• Conductivity, TDS, salinity or resistivity with temperature
• Dissolved oxygen as % saturation or concentration in ppm or mg/L with temperature

First time meter startup is made easy with the meter setup wizard, which guides the user through important meter and measurement settings. Utilize onscreen meter tours and guides for calibration, measurements, meter connections, electrode stand assembly and pH electrode usage to better understand meter operation, warnings and required maintenance. Use guided calibrations with step-by-step instructions to perform calibrations correctly and ensure accurate, reliable and reportable measurements.

Easily view measurements on the large 7-in. color graphic touchscreen display. View measurement channels individually or up to three simultaneously to meet changing measurement needs. Select the basic, advanced or custom measure display format to view only the information you prefer in the measure mode. Select the graph view to display individual measurements in a graph with temperature for measurement versus time studies.

While taking measurements, easily enter sample identification information into the meter using an optional meter accessory including USB barcode scanner, USB keyboard or USB mouse. Easily and uniformly stir samples using an optional meter-controlled and meter-powered stirrer probe, which eliminates the need for a magnetic stir plate and bars.

Save, display and export up to 20 calibrations per parameter with date and time stamp. Filter calibration logs by user and export calibration logs by date range or all at once.

Easily save measurements to the data log for long-term data retention. Save, display and export up to 10,000 data log sets with date and time stamp. View individual data log sets with extensive measurement information organized into an easy-to-read onscreen list format. Filter data logs by user, date and time or log number and export data logs by date and time range, log number range or all at once.

Output meter data logs, calibration logs and methods to a printer, computer or USB flash drive. Save data to a computer or USB drive as comma separated value (CSV) files for import into programs like Microsoft Excel or save data to a USB drive as report files for printable records. Customize exported files to include all data, advanced, intermediate or basic data only to obtain only the information needed for your record keeping. Utilize bidirectional communication with remote commands to interface the meter with computer programs including LIMS, HyperTerminal, PuTTY and additional data collection software.

Save measurement settings to standardize your analysis and SOPs using meter methods. Save up to 10 methods per parameter. Import methods to and export methods from other Orion Pro Star series meters to standardize your testing across multiple meters. Also save, import and export incremental techniques for determination of ion concentration to standardize your known addition, known subtraction, analyte addition and analyte subtraction analyses.

Activate the secure mode and assign up to 3 administrators and up to 30 users with individual account logins and password protection. Administrators can select from pre-defined user access levels to meter functions. Control access to date and time settings, instrument settings, data logs, and calibration logs, or customize each user's access level from full access to basic data collection only. Administrators can also export the user list and audit trail to help ensure digital data integrity.

Operate the included electrode stand to facilitate secure, smooth movement of electrodes into and out of solutions. The electrode stand's weighted base provides flexible placement of the stand around the meter. Secure a wide range of electrodes using the various electrode holder options. Neatly organize electrode cables in the built-in side channels of the stand.
