Introduction

The Pyxis SP-350P is a uniquely designed handheld multimeter that measures Fluorescent Polymer. It is a
cuvette-less device. Less than 5 mL water sample is needed to fill the sample cell for proper measurement.

1.1

Main Features

The Pyxis SP-350P analyzer measures the concentration of Fluorescent Polymer of a water sample and
includes the following features:

• Pre-calibrated for measuring Fluorescent Polymer in the range of 0 to 20 ppm. The Fluorescent Poly-

mer measurement is automatically compensated for sample color and turbidity interference.

• Fluorescent Polymer can be calibrated with three standards (0, 10 and 20 ppm) through a user-

friendly, menu-driven procedure.

• No sample cuvette is required and as such variations associated with the cuvette are eliminated.

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