STAPERM CU-1-BD
PART / SKU CU-1-BD
Copper / copper sulfate
Smaller-diameter all-ceramic permanent reference electrode for concrete and bridge-deck installations.
Request a quote for your project. Our team will confirm configuration, pricing, and availability.
Questions about this product? ↗The STAPERM CU-1-BD is an all-ceramic permanent reference electrode for concrete and bridge-deck applications. Its smaller diameter suits installations where space is limited.
Designed for concrete
The narrow ceramic body provides the permanent reference in a smaller format for concrete and bridge-deck monitoring. Chemistry-specific color identification helps distinguish models during installation.
Accuracy built into every electrode
Analytical-grade materials and tight acceptance tolerances support consistent reference measurements. Each chemistry is checked against a saturated calomel reference.
