    @ 65mA. Detailed wiring diagrams for common controllers are available from www.pyxis-lab.com. 4 Calibration and Diagnosis The ST-601 probe can be calibrated in a two-point (zero + slope) procedure using a deionized water sample and a standard solution containing a known ClO2 concentration. For ST-601, Pyxis recommends a 0.1% or 0.3% concentration calibration standard.
  • Page 9: Calibration

    Tap the discovered ST-601 probe to connect to the probe. uPyxis app can identify the probe type if multiple Pyxis probes are discovered in the scan. For legacy old generation probes, a dialog message window will be displayed to ask the user to tell the app the probe type. In this case, please select ST-601 as applicable.
  • Page 10: 4-20Ma Span Settings

    The default 4-20mA span is 20 mA = 3000ppm CLO2 and 4 mA = 0 ppm. Users may alter the output scale using 4-20mA Span to change the CLO2 value corresponding to the 20mA output (Figure 5). The maximum upper limitation of the 20mA output for ST-601 is 4000ppm when using this function. Pyxis ST-601...

    Place the probe in a known ClO2 calibration standard and tap Slope Calibration to carry out the slope calibration. Enter the ClO2 concentration in the dialog window as in Figure 12. For the best result, the ClO2 standard concentration should be in the range of 1000ppm to 3000ppm for ST-601. Pyxis ST-601...

    The calibration solution could be the sample ClO2 itself (in the chemical tank). The concentration of CLO2 in the sample water can be determined with using a Pyxis SP-910 Handheld meter using CLO2 High Range Direct Read method (0-1,500ppm), or by conventional titration method.

    6.2 Other Common Troubleshooting Issues If the ST-601 probe output signal is not stable and fluctuates significantly, make an additional solution ground connection - connect the clear solution ground wire to a conductor that contacts the sample water electrically such as a brass pipe near the ST-601 probe.
