Here is what the Meteoritical Bulletin says:

Northwest Africa 835
H6, S4; W1; br
1104 gr; 9 pieces;
Olivine Fa19.5; pyroxene Fs17.3

Type specimen 29.9 g. Classified by A. Greshake (MNB) and M. Kurz
(Kurz); type specimen, MNB, main mass, Kurz (Met.Bull. 86, 2002).

Especially the Fa and Fs values make NWA 835 an equilibrated H chondrite
