Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 0:
1. A self-vibrating pH probe comprising:
a housing containing an electronic assembly adapted to support detecting pH of an environment;
a controllable vibration source disposed so that at least a portion of vibrations caused by the vibration source propagate to the electronic assembly;
a pH probe member having a probe tip at a first end, the probe member extending from the housing and mechanically and electrically coupled by a second end to the electronic assembly so that at least a portion of vibrations caused by the vibration source propagate to the probe tip; and
a processor coupled to the electronic assembly and adapted to coordinate producing vibrations by the vibration source and operation of the pH probe member using an algorithm for adjusting at least one of vibration amplitude, vibration duration, delay between vibration, or pH sampling.
