1.2 Pyxis SP-400 Major Features

The Pyxis SP-400 analyzer simultaneously measures the electrical conductivity value

and the concentration of fluorescent tracer PTSA of a water sample. Main features

include:

The SP-400 is pre-calibrated for measuring PTSA (pyrenetetrasulfonic acid) in the

range of 0 to 300 ppb. The fluorescence PTSA measurement is automatically

compensated for sample color and turbidity interference.

Conductivity and PTSA fluorescence can be calibrated using a single combined

standard through a user-friendly menu-driven procedure.

Large color graphic screen that can be read in direct sunlight.

A single conductivity calibration using a single standard covers the whole

measurement range of 0 to 15000 S/cm.

1.3 Unpacking the Instrument

Remove the instrument and accessories from the shipping container and inspect each

item for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. Verify that all items

listed on the packing slip are included. If any items are missing or damaged, please

contact Pyxis Customer Service at service@pyxis-lab.com.

1.6 Light Shield Cover

The light shield cover is shown in Figure 1. It should be in the closed position during

PTSA measurement.

2.1 Battery Installation

The SP-400 is powered by a 9 volt alkaline battery. Do not use rechargeable nickel

cadmium (NiCad) or lithium batteries. A typical 9V battery lasts for two months and

enables about 3000 measurements. When the battery capacity is critically low, the

SP-400 will display a LOW BATTERY warning for 5 seconds and then automatically

turn off.

Replace the battery to resume operation of the SP-400 after the battery warning. The

SP-400 will automatically turn on in the measurement mode after new battery

installation.

The SP-400 battery compartment, shown in Figure 2, is on the back side of the

instrument.

Install battery as follows:

1. Remove the battery compartment cover by loosening two screws.

2. Make sure that the smaller circular terminal (positive) of the battery is aligned with

the hexagonal socket (positive) of the battery holder and the hexagonal socket

(negative) of the battery with the circular terminal of the holder. Snap the battery

firmly into the battery holder.

3. Replace the battery compartment cover, making sure that the sealing O-ring is

lying flat on the battery holder. To prevent the SP-400 from accidently being turned

on due to vibration, please firmly tighten the two screws.

2.2 Description of the Control Keys

The SP-400 has three keys as shown in Figure 1. The left (<), right (>) and OK keys

are used to launch an action indicated on the screen directly above the keys. Please

note that the screen is not a tough screen. The labels above the keys indicate the

function associated with the keys and can change according to the screen modes.

Figure 3 Keys and associated functions

2.3 Turning On/Off Pyxis SP-400

To turn on the SP-400, press OK momentarily and release.

To turn off the SP-400, press and hold the OK key. Release the OK key when the LCD

display turns off (after about 3 seconds). The SP-400 will turn itself off after 60

seconds without user interaction through the keys.

3PTSA and Conductivity Measurement

3.1 Measurement

When powered on, the SP-400 will be in the measurement (read) mode (see figure 3).

The water sample can be transferred to the measurement cell using a pipette or filled

directly from a faucet, sample bottle, or sample valve.

The light shield should be in the closed position in order to measure PTSA. If only

conductivity is measured, the light shield can be left in the open position.

Allow 5 seconds for the SP-400 to reach stable PTSA and conductivity readings. The

time required to reach a stable reading may be slightly longer if the water sample

Keys

Key Functions

temperature is significantly different than the environmental temperature at which

the SP-400 had been equilibrated (stored). For a sample with conductivity in the

range of 100 to 6000 S/cm, the measured conductivity value should be stabilized in

the range of 98 –102 to 5940 –6060 S/cm, respectively. For a sample containing

100 ppb PTSA, the measured PTSA should be stabilized within the range of 98 to 102

ppb.

The SP-400 does not need to be turned off between measurements of two samples.

Rinsing the measurement cell several times is recommended, especially when

switching to a sample with conductivity significantly different than the previous

sample.

3.2 Conductivity Temperature Compensation

The displayed conductivity value is automatically corrected to the nominal value at

the reference temperature 25.0°C with using the sample temperature measured. The

commonly used linear correction equation is used:

Conductivity at 25°C = (Conductivity at Tmeasure)/ [1 + 0.02(Tmeasure –25)], where

Tmeasure is the sample temperature in Celsius.

3.3 High Color and Turbidity Warning

The SP-400 has extra channels to measure sample turbidity and color to automatically

compensate sample color and turbidity interference. If sample turbidity and color

values determined are too high, a PTSA measurement warning will be displayed. In

such a case, the user should filter the sample for PTSA measurement.

4Calibration

The SP-400 fluorescence PTSA measurement and conductivity measurement can be

calibrated separately. To calibrate PTSA measurement requires the 100, 200, or 300

ppb PTSA standard solution. A standard with conductivity value 500, 1000, 2500, or

5000 µS can be used to calibrate conductivity. Optionally, the user can use a standard

with any conductivity value in the range of 500 to 5000 µS, such as the commonly

used 1412 (or 1413) µS standard, to calibrate the SP-400.

For convenience, the SP-400 can be calibrated using a combined standard with 100

ppb PTSA + 1000 µS KCl conductivity.
