Handheld meters can range in form factor, desired parameter(s), and functions to enable measurements across different applications. For form factor, meters can be fully handheld without cables (an all-in-one option with a sensor built-in to the meter) or with cables where sensors can be easily interchanged.
As an example, AlpHa’s optical dissolved oxygen handheld meter offers both laboratory and field / process sensors for multiple applications. The handheld meter offers characteristics of high precision and high stability:
Resolution down to less than 1 ppb
Built-in automatic temperature compensation
Built-in automatic pressure compensation
1-point and 2-point calibrations for ppm and ppb measurement
Salinity auto compensation with user input
