Doing some research for no maintenance pH meters, I ran across a company called Senova Systems that was set to launch the world’s First Calibration-Free pH Meter in 2013. Here is a little quote I found about that company:

Trying to find out more - their website is 404, facebook doesn't exist, and their twitter/linkedin hasn't been updated since 2013. I then found another quote:

So, it looks like to me that maybe a "big boy" bought them out because of industry disruption. That sucks. I guess solutions and electrode replacements are big business?
Have any of you ever heard of this company or know of any other pH meter that has no maintenance and can be stored dry?

Senova Systems develops, manufactures and sells next-generation sensor systems based on coupling its patented chemistries with advanced materials and proprietary microelectronics. Senova Systems’ first focus is a revolutionary new pH sensor platform, which replaces current glass electrodes with solid-state, smart sensors that require no user calibration. This breakthrough offers significant operational and economic benefits in the life science, food and beverage, dairy, petrochemical, water and environmental sectors, and will ultimately enable advances in healthcare and other specialized applications.

Senova Systems, Inc., sold substantially all of its assets to an undisclosed buyer for an upfront payment and potential future milestone payments. Even if all of the milestone payments are received in full, we do not expect to recover our cost basis of approximately $4 million. The Company received proceeds of $356,336 as repayment of the principal and accrued interest of its outstanding bridge notes of Senova Systems.
