When choosing a benchtop meter for your testing needs, there are several factors to consider before making a purchase. Performance and capability play a key role in making the right choice.
You might find yourself asking questions like: How accurate and precise is the meter? Does it cover the parameters and measurement ranges I need? Is it easy for my team to use? What are the data management and reporting features?
Having clear answers to these questions helps ensure you select the right benchtop meter for your laboratory or facility. It’s also important to consider durability, manufacturer support, and the overall cost to get started.
With these points in mind, let’s look at our Multiparameter Modular System. We’ll go through the top 10 features and benefits to help you make an informed decision.
1. Tailor to your testing needs
Top feature:
Our Multiparameter Modular System features a plug-and-play design with four module options: pH/ORP, pH/ORP/ISE, EC/TDS, and Dissolved Oxygen (DO). The benchtop unit includes three bays at the back to hold compatible modules, allowing you to measure one, two, or three parameters at the same time. Modules are quick and easy to install or swap as needed.
How does this benefit you?
This flexibility lets you set up the system to suit your exact requirements. You can start with a single parameter like pH and expand later by adding EC/TDS or DO or measure multiple parameters from the start. It’s a fully customisable setup that adapts as your testing needs grow, giving you complete control over how you work.
2. Save time and maximise productivity
Top feature:
Measure up to three different parameters at the same time using a single benchtop meter.
How does this benefit you?
There’s no need to wait for one test to finish before starting another. By running multiple measurements at once, you can speed up your workflow, reduce testing time, and free up time for other important tasks. This helps improve overall efficiency in your operations.
3. Results stand out in a busy lab environment
Top feature:
Display up to three measurements at once on the screen, with adjustable layouts and formats. Choose from options like Basic View, Simple GLP View, Full GLP View, Graph View, and Table View.
How does this benefit you?
Your results are always clear and easy to read, even in a busy lab. With multiple viewing options, you can quickly check each parameter and access the data you need in one place. This makes it easier for your team to review results instantly, make any necessary adjustments, and stay on top of testing as it happens.
4. Exceed standards and requirements with precision
Top feature:
Our Multiparameter Modular System delivers fast, accurate, and repeatable results at the push of a button.
How does this benefit you?
Reliable measurements are critical in any lab. With equipment you can trust, you gain confidence in your results and peace of mind in your processes. Consistent accuracy also helps you stay compliant and avoid costly issues, protecting your operations, reputation, and product.
5. Meet the demands of your industry
Top feature:
Our Multiparameter Modular System is built to be durable and suitable for a wide range of industries, applications, and environments. It’s ideal for chemists, researchers, educators, food and beverage producers, metal finishers, water quality technicians, and more.
How does this benefit you?
Choosing the right benchtop meter is an important decision. You need equipment that’s reliable and built to handle your day-to-day work. With its adaptable design and robust build, this system is ready to support your testing needs, no matter your industry or application.
6. Ensure seamless shift transitions
Top feature:
Multiple users can access the same unit, with administrators able to create accounts and assign permissions and passwords. User levels include administrator and standard access.
How does this benefit you?
In busy labs, equipment is often shared across teams and shifts. With individual logins, user management becomes simple and organised. It also helps keep the system secure by limiting access and preventing unwanted changes to settings or results.
7. Prepare for audits and pass inspections with traceable data
Top feature:
Store up to 1 million data points with time and date stamps for easy tracking. Each record includes a sample ID and supports both manual and auto-hold data collection. Method-specific reports can be generated, and data can be exported as a .CSV file via email, FTP, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, USB flash drive, or direct PC connection.
How does this benefit you?
Audit preparation becomes much simpler with automatically recorded GLP data. Everything is organised and easy to access, reducing the stress of managing records. With clear, traceable reporting, you can stay compliant with regulations and keep your operations running smoothly.
8. Make this benchtop yours with versatile connection options
Top feature:
This benchtop meter offers flexible connectivity, including Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or the option to disable network access. Accessories like a printer or keyboard can be connected via USB-A. It also supports up to two Mini Magnetic Stirrers and includes one electrode holder, with the option to add another.
How does this benefit you?
You can set up the system to suit the way you work. With multiple connection options and accessory support, it’s easy to streamline your workflow and improve efficiency. You can even expand your bandwidth with a Mini Magnetic Stirrer (HI6000180) or additional Electrode Holder (HI764060). A Thermal Printer (SP6000-PRN01) can also be integrated with this benchtop meter. Quickly print and share data reports when you need to.
9. Conveniently attach any BNC electrode for pH/ISE readings
Top feature:
Our Multiparameter Modular System is compatible with all Hanna Instruments pH electrodes that use a BNC connection.
How does this benefit you?
The universal BNC connection makes setup simple and hassle-free. It also gives you the flexibility to choose from a wide range of pH/ISE electrodes to suit your specific testing needs.
10. Get the support you need
Top feature:
The benchtop includes a built-in help menu with brief descriptions of key functions and video tutorials. Our Hanna team of experts is also available by phone or email (sales@hannainst.com.au) for additional support.
How does this benefit you?
Questions can arise during testing, or you may need technical guidance. The help menu provides quick answers to keep your work on track, while our support team is ready to assist whenever you need it. With Hanna, you have expert guidance to prevent delays and ensure your testing runs smoothly.
