Hanna pH Tester for Soil with Bluetooth

Hanna pH Tester for Soil with Bluetooth — Soil and soil-slurry pH checks

This tester is most useful for agronomists, growers, greenhouse teams, and environmental users who need a portable instrument for spot-checking soil conditions in the field, greenhouse, or lab before making nutrient or amendment decisions. 

The HI981032 soil ph tester is ideal for agricultural, hydroponics, and greenhouse growers monitoring the pH of soil or soil slurries.

• Open-source Bluetooth allows easy integration into current data logging systems
• IP65 water-resistant protection
• Specialized electrode for spot-checking pH
• Equipped with everything you need for successful testing right out of the box

Universal Connectivity

The open-source Bluetooth® protocol allows easy integration with the Hanna Lap App and the 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 is 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 is 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 type and shape for each HALO2.

Cleaning Solution

Each HALO2 pH tester comes with a cleaning solution engineered to keep the electrode free from contaminates. 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 long electrode life. Our storage solution is specially formulated to keep the pH glass hydrated while minimizing organic growth.   

Technical Q&A

What is a Bluetooth soil pH tester?

A Bluetooth soil pH tester is a handheld meter that measures the acidity or alkalinity (pH) of soil and wirelessly sends results to a smartphone or tablet app via Bluetooth. These testers often also measure soil temperature and can log or share data for better soil analysis. 

Why measure soil pH?

Soil pH affects nutrient availability and microbial activity in the root zone. Maintaining the correct pH range helps optimize plant growth, nutrient uptake, and overall soil health for gardening, farming, or greenhouse use.

How does Bluetooth connectivity improve soil pH testing?

Bluetooth connectivity allows real‑time data transmission from the meter to a mobile app. This lets you save, manage, and share historical readings, set alerts, and often visualize trends over time instead of relying on manual note‑taking.

How are soil pH and temperature measured?

Bluetooth soil pH testers use built‑in electrodes to sense hydrogen ion activity in soil, which corresponds to pH. Many models also include a temperature sensor and automatic temperature compensation to improve accuracy across various soil conditions.

What pH range can these testers typically measure?

Most Bluetooth soil pH meters measure across the full pH scale from about 0.0 to 14.0. This covers strongly acidic to strongly alkaline soils, suitable for a wide range of plants and soil types. 

Can Bluetooth soil pH testers work outdoors?

Yes. Many portable Bluetooth soil testers are designed for outdoor use in gardens, lawns, farms, and greenhouses and may have rugged or weather‑resistant housings. Always check the product specifications for ingress protection ratings. 

What are other benefits of using a Bluetooth soil pH tester?

Benefits include easier calibration tracking via an app, less manual recording, automatic logging of multiple measurements, and data sharing for scientific or agricultural reporting. Bluetooth meters can also set limits and provide alerts when measurements fall outside desired ranges. 

Are Bluetooth soil pH testers suitable for beginners?

Yes. Most Bluetooth soil pH meters are designed to be user‑friendly with simple probe insertion, app guidance, and automatic data handling, making them suitable for gardeners, growers, and hobbyists of all levels.

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?

Agronomists, growers, greenhouse teams, and environmental users benefit most when they need quick, defensible readings for process adjustments, troubleshooting, or documented quality checks.

Because it combines pH range: 0,00 - 12.00, Calibration buffers: up to 4, Battery life with Bluetooth enabled: 500 hours, this product is a strong fit for soil and soil-slurry pH checks in real operating conditions.
