Hanna pH Meter for Cosmetic Creams — Cosmetic cream pH checks
This meteris most useful for cosmetics manufacturers and formulation teams who need a portable instrument for spot-checking emulsions and creams during development, batch production, and release testing.
Universal Connectivity The open-source Bluetooth® protocol allows easy integration with the Hanna Lap App and current Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). The HALO2 Wireless pH testers are GLP-compliant.
IP65 Water Resistant Protection The housing of the HALO2 pH testers are rated IP65, meaning it has a high level of protection against particles and dust and protection against the ingress of water from jets. Protection that will keep these testers working for you in most conditions.
Pocket Sized The compact size makes these HALO2 testers ideal for on-the-go testing. A large LCD display provides at-a-glance readings from any angle. The single button operation streamlines the testing process for users of all experience levels.
Junction Design
The type of junction in a pH electrode is vital to measurement speed and accuracy. Each of the HALO2 testers are designed to work within specific anticipated environments, with their unique challenges, to create the best solution for each application.
Probe Body
Tester body materials are based on the testing environment, the sample type, and the frequency of use. The HALO2 configurations are designed to make pH measurements easier and more accurate in each application's environment indicated by the description.
Membrane Tip
Each membrane is designed to maximize the sensor accuracy, response time, and longevity of the probe. Application sample variations and ease of use determine the membrane glass and shape for each HALO2.
Cleaning Solution
Each HALO2 pH tester comes with a cleaning solution engineered to keep the electrode free from contaminants. This concentrated combination of detergents cleans your tester quickly and effectively so that your tester stays in optimum condition.
Easy Calibration
HALO2 can be placed right into our calibration buffer sachets for easy calibration. Using a Hanna calibration sachet ensures your buffer is always fresh.
Storage Solution
Proper storage of your electrode will ensure reliable measurements and a long electrode life. Our storage solution is specially formulated to keep the pH glass hydrated while minimizing organic growth.

Technical Q&A
Why is measuring pH important for cosmetic creams?
Measuring the pH of cosmetic creams helps ensure product stability, safety, and performance. The pH affects how a product interacts with skin, the activity of preservatives, and overall product quality. Using a proper pH meter gives more reliable results than simple test strips.
What sample types is this pH meter suitable for?
This meter is ideally suited for viscous and semi‑solid samples such as creams, lotions, gels, and other cosmetic formulations that are challenging for standard pH electrodes. Its specialized conical tip electrode enhances contact with such samples.
What pH range and accuracy does the HALO2 meter provide?
The HALO2 pH meter typically measures pH from 0.00 to 12.00 with a resolution of 0.01 or 0.1 pH and an accuracy of approximately ±0.02 pH under standard conditions.
Does this meter include temperature measurement or compensation?
Yes, the built‑in temperature sensor enables automatic temperature compensation to help maintain accurate pH readings across different sample temperatures.
Can the pH readings be logged or connected to other devices?
Yes. The HALO2 uses wireless Bluetooth connectivity, allowing it to connect to the Hanna Lab app or other data systems for logging, calibration tracking, and result tagging.
How is the pH meter calibrated?
Calibration is straightforward using standard buffer solutions. The meter supports automatic calibration at up to three or four points with recognized buffer sets, helping ensure accurate and traceable results.
What additional accessories or consumables are typically needed?
The meter typically requires calibration buffer solutions, cleaning solution for the electrode, and a storage solution to keep the glass membrane hydrated. These ensure optimal performance and electrode longevity.
Application Q&A
What makes this kind of instrument practical for daily use?
Portable operation, straightforward calibration routines, and application-specific sensors or scales help teams get faster and more repeatable results where the work is actually happening.
Who benefits most from this product?
Cosmetics manufacturers and formulation teams benefit most when they need quick, defensible readings for process adjustments, troubleshooting, or documented quality checks.
Because it combines Open-source Bluetooth allows easy integration into current data logging systems, IP65 water resistant protection, Specialized electrode for spot checking pH, this product is a strong fit for cosmetic cream pH checks in real operating conditions.
