Description
PH8500-HF portable pH meter supports accurate determination of pH, ORP (electrode available separately) and temperature in strongly acidic solutions and hydrofluoric acid. It is supplied with the LabSen® 833 pH/temperature electrode, which uses a specialised HF-resistant glass membrane that markedly extends electrode life; HF-containing solutions can be measured approximately 1000 times under stated conditions (25 °C, 1 % HF, 1 min measurement). The electrode includes an integrated temperature sensor for automatic temperature compensation up to 100 °C. Encased in a silicone sleeve and rated IP57, the meter from APERA Instruments withstands water, dust and rough field conditions; a fold-out stand facilitates bench use. Features comprise quick 1- to 3-point calibration, a large backlit LCD showing pH and temperature with calibration details, self-diagnosis, GLP data management for 500 memory groups and USB data output including real-time logging. Ranges are pH −2,00 to 16,00 (resolution 0,1/0,01, accuracy ±0,01 pH), mV ±2000 and temperature 0 to 100 °C. The kit contains the meter, LabSen® 833 electrode, calibration solutions pH 4,00, pH 7,00 and pH 10,01 (50 ml each), USB cable, USB stick with PC-Link software, screwdriver, manual and carrying case. Dimensions 88 × 170 × 33 mm, net weight 0,313 kg.

Questions about PH8500-HF Portable pH Meter for Solutions containing Strong or Hydrofluoric Acid
What is this article?
PH8500-HF Portable pH Meter for Solutions containing Strong or Hydrofluoric Acid is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes APERA Instruments for laboratory use. It sits in pH meters, inside pH & electrochemistry, in Lab instruments.
A pH meter reads the electrode and displays pH, after calibration with at least two buffers. A meter that cannot be calibrated is a voltmeter. Resolution to 0.001 is not the same as accuracy. Portable and benchtop meters differ in the electrodes they accept and in the data they store.
A pH meter is a voltmeter on a glass electrode. The voltage tracks hydrogen-ion activity, and the electrode is converted to pH only after it is adjusted with buffers of known value. Conductivity measures how well a solution carries a current, which for dilute salts tracks concentration. Dissolved oxygen and titration are further electrodes on the same idea: a sensor, a standard, and a reading that is only as fresh as the calibration. Buffer values and chemical identity sit on PubChem. Accreditation of the calibration laboratory is the field of BELAC and EURAMET.
