Your Guide to the OHaus Starterpen Handheld and Portable Meters Series

OHaus StarterPens series is an affordable line of handheld and portable meters. There are instruments to accurately measure pH, conductivity, salinity, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen(DO), and total dissolved solids (TDS).

To help you find the best OHaus StaterPen for your needs, Instrument Choice Scientists examined the differences they found with each meter. We set out the results in easy-to-read tables.

About OHaus

OHaus started as a scale repair business in 1907. They are now a world leader in the manufacture of an immense range of scales and balances. In 2015, OHaus launched a new line of laboratory and water quality measuring products that included water quality meters, electrodes, centrifuges, shakers, incubators, mixers, block heaters, hot plate stirrers, and more.

Today, we spotlight OHaus Starterpen water quality meters.

OHaus Starterpen Series

OHaus StarterPen meters are simple to operate, portable, waterproof, and durable. Meters will withstand dropping, resist water ingress, and maintain performance in rugged environments. You can select a Pen meter to accurately measure pH, conductivity, salinity, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen(DO), and total dissolved solids (TDS).

The StarterPen series consists of two main groups, ST10 and ST20. The ST10 products are basic instruments that do not offer temperature measurements. The ST20 line includes features such as temperature compensation, temperature measurements, and operators can calibrate most models.

OHaus StarterPen pH Meters

Two models of StarterPen pH Meter are available. Both provide a straightforward and convenient way to measure the pH of any liquid solution.

OHaus StarterPen ORP Meters 

OHaus offers two models capable of calibrating Oxidation-reduction potential (i.e., ORP), an evaluation of the ability of a lake or river to cleanse itself or break down waste products. The availability of electrons in a liquid is the determinant of ORP levels. The IC-ST10R and IC-ST20R products can measure ORP in virtually any environment, while you are “on the go.”
