Pseudo reference electrodes have variable potentials depending on the alkalinity of the concrete, temperature, availability of oxygen etc. Our MMO, Graphite and zine reference electrodes are pseudo reference electrodes.
These are pseudo reference electrodes which can be used to monitor cathodic protection systems but the potential of the electrode is dependent on oxygen levels and pH in the concrete. Calibration certificates cannot be provided for these electrodes.

High purity titanium ASTM B348 Grade 1 with mixed metal oxide iridium based coatings
Variable depending on the environment and pH dependent.
75mm long x 6.35mm diameter
Measuring interface >850mm2
2.5mm2 XLPE/XLPE
More than 50 years. The function life of the electrode will most likely be determined by the life of the associated cables.
