The Bluelab pH PenPlus is a compact digital pH and temperature meter designed for growers who need dependable readings in hydroponics, fertigation, nutrient solution mixing, reservoirs, irrigation systems, and demanding cultivation environments.
Built with a replaceable pH/temperature probe, this handheld meter helps extend product life by allowing the probe to be swapped when natural probe wear occurs, rather than replacing the entire pen. Its double-junction probe supports reliable measurement performance, while the IP68 dustproof and waterproof design makes it suitable for everyday grow-room, greenhouse, and field use. With a bright backlit display, hold-reading function, simple 2-point calibration, 30-day calibration reminder, and temperature display in °C or °F, the Bluelab pH PenPlus gives growers a practical, long-term tool for maintaining pH confidence in every reading.

How to Use
Remove the protective silicone cap and check that the probe is hydrated before use. Rinse the probe with clean water, then place the probe tip into the nutrient solution or water sample being tested. Wait for the reading to stabilise, then use the hold function if you need to capture the result before removing the pen. Rinse the probe after testing, apply the storage cap with the KCl-filled sponge as directed, and store the meter within the recommended temperature range. For best accuracy, perform a 2-point calibration regularly and follow the 30-day calibration reminder. Replace the probe when natural wear affects performance.
