Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), also known as REDOX, is a measure of the cleanliness of water and its ability to oxidize or reduce.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons, so oxidizers take electrons from other molecules. Reduction is the gaining of electrons, so reducers donate electrons to other molecules.

The oxidation-reduction potential is measured as a single voltage in millivolts (mV). Oxidizing agents have a positive ORP value, while reducing agents have a negative ORP value.

Our ORP sensor has the feature a double junction technology to protect the reference cell from contamination by sample components. Reliable performance in demanding applications: The flat sensing face is self-cleaning and resists breakage, for minimal maintenance. Output options include:  4-20 mA or MODBUS/RS485 output. Versatile design for many applications: 3/4" NPT threads on both ends for submersion or inline mounting.

Since ORP sensors have both 4-20 mA analog and Modbus digital outputs, they are well suited for direct connection to our NTM multiparameter system. No secondary transmitter is needed.
