Lakewood Instruments 520 Series pH Sensors
Lakewood Instruments uses the latest technology in pH electrode construction. Our innovative differential electrode design of our pH sensors prevents ground loop issues and reduces excessive reliance on the reference electrode connection to the process stream to ensure stable readings.
With two different body materials, three mounting options and four different glass electrodes, Lakewood Instruments has the water pH sensor to fit your needs.
Cooling Tower pH Sensors
For cooling towers, you need to choose the right cooling tower pH sensor to match your Lakewood Controller. There are some subtle differences that will prevent compatibility problems.
For a standard Cooling Tower pH:
- If you are using a Model 1520e pH controller, you want our 1240472 pH sensor with it’s its PVC body, BNC connector, and 15′ of cable length.
- If you are using a Model 1575e or NexSys controller, you want our 1269422 pH sensor with the same PVC body but a SMB connector and 10′ cable length.
For a cooling tower, condensate, or waste application pH sensor for which you want to be specific about the type of glass on the sensor itself, we offer 520 series (BNC connector) and 522 series sensors (SMB connector), which have the options of:
pH Sensor Glass:
- standard
- dome glass
- high sodium glass
- pure water glass
pH Sensor Body Materials:
- PVC
- 316 SS with optional 10″, 18″ or 48″ body
pH Sensor Fitment:
- Compression Fitting
- Retractable Ball Valve
If you need a new pH sensor, we have just the right sensor glass, connectors, cables, transmitters, body material, etc. for your application.

Specifications
Option | Body Material | Max Temp.† | Pressure* | Wetted Materials |
-5x | CPVC | 150°F (66°C) † | 100 psi (6.9 bar)* | CPVC, Glass, Carbon, Viton |
-7x | 316 SS | 230°F (110°C) † | 150 psi (10.3 bar) * | 316 SS, Glass, Viton |
† Temperature rating of sensors depends on the combination of the body and glass electrode. Use the lower temperature of the sensor’s body or glass electrode to determine sensors temperature specification.
* The maximum pressure rating for the 5I, 5R, 7I and 7R options with the teflon ferrules is 70 psi.
