The Apera PH60Z-PW (AI3739) is a professional handheld pH meter designed specifically for measuring pure and low-ionic-strength water, including reverse-osmosis (RO), distilled, deionized, drinking, well, boiler, storm, and surface water. It combines the PH60Z smart meter body with the Swiss-made LabSen 805 pH/temperature electrode, which is engineered to provide stable readings in low-conductivity water where conventional pH electrodes may produce slow, drifting, or erratic results.
The LabSen 805 features a triple-ceramic junction system for rapid electrolyte discharge and an ultra-low-resistance, L-shaped olive membrane with resistance below 50 MΩ. Its Long-Life Reference System helps maintain reference-potential stability over time. The meter offers ±0.01 pH accuracy, automatic temperature compensation, automatic calibration, stable-reading recognition, and Bluetooth connectivity to the ZenTest mobile app for cloud-based data logging and reporting. The complete kit includes calibration buffers, soaking solution, a CalPod Solution Organizer, and a rugged carrying case.

Key Advantage: The Apera PH60Z-PW combines accurate pH measurement with an electrode specifically engineered for RO, distilled, and other low-ionic-strength water sources where conventional probes can produce unstable readings. Its triple-ceramic junctions and ultra-low-resistance glass membrane help maintain measurement stability, while Bluetooth cloud logging provides timestamped, location-tagged records without manual transcription. The replaceable electrode and included calibration accessories make it a practical option for facilities that regularly verify source-water quality before preparing nutrient solutions.
