Barrier part number 9120019 is intended for installation in hazardous locations with Zone 1, Ex d Gb classification. The barrier is installed into the LXT-380 flame-proof housing and performs two important functions. First, the barrier provides a flame-proof termination between the Model LXT-380 Transmitter Model SP3X Sensor. Second, the barrier provides intrinsically safe outputs to the SP3X Sensor by limiting available energy to the SP3X Sensor.
• Substitution of components is NOT PERMITTED and may impact intrinsic safety. • Ensure a minimum 5 full threads of engagement. • Connect and verify green wire to LXT-380 grounding lug. 1.3 STOPPING PLUG 9310062 IECEx: SIR 07.0082X ATEX: SIRA 07ATEX1240X...

LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Calibration 4.0 CALIBRATION The Model LXT-380 transmitter provides three methods of calibration: Auto Calibration Standardize Calibration Manual Calibration 4.0.1 AUTO CALIBRATION DESCRIPTION Auto calibration is the primary calibration method for all measurements. AUTO calibration automatically recognizes the calibration solution the sensor is in and proposes the actual temperature compensated value for acceptance.
Calibration LXT-380 Universal Transmitter 4.0.2 STANDARDIZE CALIBRATION DESCRIPTION A Standardize Calibration is a single point calibration where the transmitter’s reading is adjusted to agree with a solution of known value, either a calibration standard, a grab sample or laboratory determined value. In many cases the constituents and the pressure and temperature of the process solution are very different from the calibration solution.
Calibration LXT-380 Universal Transmitter 4.1.2 AUTO CAL USING OTHER PH BUFFERS 4.1.3 STANDARDIZE Leave the sensor in the process solution, take a grab sample from the process and determine the pH or place sensor in a calibration standard solution. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Calibration 4.2 ORP CALIBRATION PROCEDURES AUTO Calibration recognizes Quinhydrone solutions (mVa), pH 7.00 quinhydrone solution (90 mV) and pH 4.01 quinhydrone solution (267 mV) for automatic ORP calibrations. Any calibration solutions can be used but the ORP value will have to be entered manually. Follow the steps below to accomplish an ORP calibration.
Calibration LXT-380 Universal Transmitter 4.3 PION CALIBRATION PROCEDURES AUTO Calibration recognizes 1, 10 or 100 ppm/ppb calibration solutions. Any calibration solutions can be used but the ppm value will have to be entered manually. Follow the steps below to accomplish a pION calibration.
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Calibration 4.3.3 STANDARDIZE Leave the sensor in the process solution, take a grab sample from the process and determine the Ion concentration. 4.4 SP3X DISSOLVED OXYGEN CALIBRATION PROCEDURES The dissolved oxygen AUTO Cal acknowledges zero ppm, mg/l, % SAT for CAL 1 and the temperature compensated value for atmospheric oxygen, 8.25 ppm, mg/l at 25°C or 100 % SAT for CAL 2.

LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Calibration Table 2 Altitude Correction 4.5 CONDUCTIVITY SENSORS AUTO Calibration recognizes air for zero point (Cal 1) and 50μS, 100μS, 500μS, 1mS, 5mS, 10mS, 50mS and 100mS solutions for the span (Cal 2). Any calibration solutions can be used but the conductivity value will have to be entered manually.
4.6 TDS CONDUCTIVITY SENSORS The Total Dissolved Solids measurement (TDS) on the Model LXT-380 transmitter is made with an SP3X conductivity sensor and a correlation factor. (Conductivity in μS x correlation factor = ppm). Conductivity is a measurement of a solution’s electrolytic conductivity, 1/ohms.
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Calibration around 6000 μS (correlation factor 0.1667). All three solutions have a TDS of 1000 ppm but the conductivities are 1400 μS, 2000 μS and 6000 μS. A TDS measurement is only valid for a solution with the same chemical make up as the solution used for calibration.

No periodic maintenance is required for the Teledyne Model LXT- 380 Transmitter. Do not open the LXT-380 enclosure in a hazardous environment without ensuring that NO hazardous gases, vapor or dust is present. Remove power prior to opening cover and/or performing any service, repair or cleaning.
SP3X Sensors LXT-380 Universal Transmitter sensor in place. The torque specification for the gland fitting is 20-ft/lbs. Over-tightening of the nut may swage the nylon or Teflon ferrules to the housing crushing the internal sensor components. 8.1.2 IMMERSION The ¾” MNPT compression fitting is reversed and threaded into an extension/immersion pipe so the compression gland is facing the measurement end of the sensor.

SP3X Sensors LXT-380 Universal Transmitter 8.3 SP3X SENSOR MAINTENANCE All electrochemical sensors require periodic cleaning and/or replacement. The life of an electrode is dependent on the process conditions it is exposed to, a pH electrode may last a year or longer in potable water and only a few weeks in a hot caustic bath.
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter SP3X Sensors removing hard water scales and metallic deposits or spray washing for flocculants and biofilms. 8.3.1 ELECTRODE CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION Unless ordered separately, electrode cartridges are generally shipped installed in a sensor. Sensors ordered without an electrode are shipped with a shipping plug to keep contamination from getting inside the sensor during shipment or storage.
SP3X Sensors LXT-380 Universal Transmitter 8.3.3 ELECTRODE CLEANING An important aspect of sensor maintenance is the service of the electrode cartridge. After being in operation, an electrode may begin to exhibit slow response or non-reproducible measurements. This may be due to coating of the measurement electrode or clogging of the reference junction.
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter SP3X Sensors 8.3.6 PION ELECTRODE CARTRIDGE CLEANING Ion selective electrodes require periodic service. Weekly checks should be performed to assure the accuracy of the measurement. The ion selective crystal that senses the ion concentration can become sluggish in response due to coating or reactions with the process solution.
SP3X Sensors LXT-380 Universal Transmitter Fluoride Electrodes a. Moisten the end of the Q-tip with water and dip it in the alumina polishing powder to pick up a small amount of the powder. b. Rub the polishing powder onto the fluoride crystal in a circular motion and moisten the tip if necessary to produce a liquid consistency more than a paste.
LXT-380 Universal Transmitter SP3X Sensors 8.3.8 C ONDUCTIVITY AND ESISTIVITY SENSORS Cleaning agents should be specific to the type of coating, detergents or alcohols for removing greases and oils, acids for removing hard water scales and metallic deposits or spray washing with water and a soft brush for flocculants and biofilms.
