Apera designs the 833 for professional pH measurement of solutions containing hydrofluoric acid and other strong acids, with an HF-type glass membrane rated resistant to hydrofluoric corrosion at 1 g\/L and a silver-ion-trap reference for stability and service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;font-weight:300;box-sizing:border-box;font-size:1rem;line-height:1.75;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eChoose AI5529 when the sample chemistry, rather than portability alone, decides the electrode. Apera lists the LabSen 833 at 0–11 pH and 0–100°C. Those are the electrode’s working limits, not the meter’s wider 0.00 to 14.00 pH display range. The HF rating is a measuring allowance with time limits, not immunity: Apera’s manual caps each HF immersion and rules out solutions at or above 0.5 mol\/L.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;font-weight:300;box-sizing:border-box;flex:1 1 340px;min-width:0;\"\u003e\u003cfigure style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;font-weight:300;box-sizing:border-box;margin:0;min-width:0;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/1579\/4474\/files\/apera-ph850-hf-hero-20261017-harsh.webp?v=1792249026\u0026amp;width=1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/1579\/4474\/files\/apera-ph850-hf-hero-20261017-harsh.webp?v=1792249026\u0026amp;width=360 360w, https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/1579\/4474\/files\/apera-ph850-hf-hero-20261017-harsh.webp?v=1792249026\u0026amp;width=640 640w, https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/1579\/4474\/files\/apera-ph850-hf-hero-20261017-harsh.webp?v=1792249026\u0026amp;width=1000 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width:600px) calc(100vw - 80px), 560px\" alt=\"Apera PH850 portable meter with the supplied LabSen 833 pH\/temperature electrode\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1600\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:460px;height:auto;object-fit:contain;box-sizing:border-box;margin:0 auto;\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;font-weight:300;box-sizing:border-box;font-size:.86rem;line-height:1.65;color:#5D6C63;margin-top:12px;\"\u003ePH850 meter with the supplied LabSen 833.
