1 Introduction The Pyxis SP-210Bleach Handheld measures the mass/mass concentration of Chlorine in Sodium Hypochlo- rite Bleach solution. Without any reagent kits, the SP-210 can quickly test high Sodium Hypochlorite Bleach concentration parameters on the spot with high sensitivity. 1.1 Main Features The SP-210 includes the following features: •...
• Bluetooth/USB Adapter for Desktop P/N: MA-NEB • User Manual available online at https://pyxis-lab.com/support/ 3.2 Optional Accessories The following optional accessories can be ordered from Pyxis Customer Service (order@pyxis-lab.com) or Pyxis E-Store at https://pyxis-lab.com/shop/.

The SP-210 is powered by four alkaline batteries. Typical battery life lasts for 10,000 measurements or 10 months. When the battery capacity is critically low, the SP-210 will display a ”LOW BATTERY” warning for 5 seconds and then automatically turn off.
To turn off the SP-210: Press and hold for about three seconds. Release when the LCD display turns off. The SP-210 turns itself off after 60 seconds without user interaction detected. This is done to conserve battery life. NOTE This auto-time off setting may be customized by the user as desired through the uPyxis®...
To avoid residue or contamination from the previous solution, please clean the sample cell at least three times. NOTE Be sure to clean the sample cell after each use of the SP-210 and dry it with a clean paper towel to avoid over force damage. 6.2 Suspended Solids Chromaticity Interference The SP-210 has extra channels to measure sample suspended solids and color which are used to automati- cally compensate for any interference caused by these contaminants as high as 20–50 mg/L.
2. Power on the SP-210 by pressing 3. The SP-210 displays and measures the concentration of bleach. If deionized water is used, the mea- sured value will be very low; the value of sodium hypochlorite should be close to zero. A relatively low non-zero reading (e.g., 0.01 etc.) is not a problem.
