Pyxis Lab, Inc. Standard Limited Warranty Pyxis Lab warrants its products for defects in materials and workmanship. Pyxis Lab will, at its option, repair or replace instrument components that prove to be defective with new or remanufactured components (i.e., equivalent to new).
The wet part of the probe is a 6-inch long, 7 mm OD Teflon tubing. This configuration ensures long-term stable measurement of the bleach concentration. The ST-600 probe can be connected to any device that accepts an isolated or non-isolated 4-20mA input. Other features of the Pyxis ST-600 probe include: •...
Figure 1. ST-600 Bleach Concentration Probe 4.1. Quick 4-20mA Start Note: The negative 24V power terminal (power ground) and the negative 4-20 mA terminal on the ST- 600 probe are internally connected. If the power ground terminal and the negative 4-20 mA terminal in the controller are internally connected (non-isolated 4-20mA input), it is unnecessary to connect the 4-20 mA negative wire (blue) to the 4-20 mA negative terminal in the controller.
Connect via WiFi/Bluetooth Figure 2 shows the connection between a computer and the ST-600 probe via WiFi/Bluetooth adapter (P/N: MA-WB). A smart phone app is provided to connect the ST-600 probe to your smart phone via WiFi or Bluetooth interface.
4.3. Connect via USB Figure 3 shows the connection between a computer and the ST-600 probe via USB-RS485 adapter. Use the USB-RS485 adapter provided by Pyxis Lab Inc. (Item Number: MA-485). Using other USB-485 adapters may result in permanent damage of the ST-600 probe communication hardware.
5.2. Connecting to uPyxis Mobile App Turn on Bluetooth on your mobile phone (Do not pair the phone Bluetooth to the ST-600). Open uPyxis Mobile App. uPxis App connects to the Probe and click on the ST-600 probe. 5.3. Calibration Screen and Reading...

When in the Diagnosis screen you can view the Diagnosis Condition of the device. 6.7. Calibrating Device To calibrate the device, click on Calibration. On the Calibration screen there are three calibration tabs, Zero Calibration, Slope...
6.8. Zero Calibration To perform Zero Calibration, click on Zero Calibration. Then follow the instruction on how to calibrate, then click 6.9. Slope Calibration To perform Slope Calibration, click on Slope Calibration. Then follow the instruction on how to calibrate, then click Slope Calibration.
8. Communicating using Modbus RTU The ST-600 probe is configured as a Modbus slave device. In addition to the NTU value, many operational parameters, including warning and error messages, are available via a Modbus RTU connection.
It is rare that the probe Teflon tubing needs to be cleaned or replaced. However, a replacement tubing with the proper socket fitting to fix the tubing to the probe body can be purchased from Pyxis. It is recommended that the ST-600 probe is calibrated monthly with using DI and a bleach standard solution.
