Overview

Equipped with a fluorescence measurement principle, this water quality dissolved oxygen sensor is available for sale. The dissolved oxygen sensor features a measurement range of 0 to 20 mg/L, supports RS485 (Modbus RTU) output, and incorporates automatic temperature compensation (Pt1000) to ensure reliable readings across varying environments. The T90 response time is less than 30 seconds, enabling rapid capture of oxygen concentration changes in water bodies.

Feature

Dissolved oxygen sensor feature

  • The water quality dissolved oxygen sensor employs a fluorescence measurement method, eliminating the need for electrolytes and preventing polarization. It remains unaffected by flow velocity and offers superior long-term stability.
  • The sensor incorporates high-precision temperature and salinity compensation modules that automatically adjust for environmental changes, ensuring more accurate and reliable readings.
  • SUCH water quality sensors demonstrate excellent resistance to chemical interference, unaffected by substances like sulfides. They exhibit minimal drift, fast response times, and suitability for diverse complex water bodies.
  • The fluorescent membrane head is easily replaceable with low maintenance requirements. It supports both RS485 interfaces and Modbus-RTU protocol, featuring low power consumption and robust anti-interference design for extended service life.

Calibration

Dissolved oxygen sensor slope calibration

Zero Calibration: Weigh 5g sodium sulfite using a balance. Measure 95mL water with a 250mL graduated cylinder. Pour water into a beaker, add weighed sodium sulfite, and stir thoroughly with a glass rod until dissolved to obtain a 5% sodium sulfite solution. Immerse the sensor in the solution. After 3 minutes when readings stabilize, perform zero calibration.

Slope Calibration: Place the sensor in air-saturated water. After approximately 3 minutes when the reading stabilizes, perform slope calibration.

Preparation of Air-Saturated Water: Add 2/3 of the volume of fresh distilled water to a constant-temperature water bath. Float a porous plastic plate on the water surface (see left side of the image above). Simultaneously, continuously aerate the water using a bubbler (air pump) for over 1 hour. After stopping aeration, allow the water to settle for approximately 20 minutes to obtain air-saturated water. Immerse the sensor in the water and perform slope calibration once the readings stabilize.

Note: As an alternative, slope calibration may also be performed in air saturated with water vapor. Fill the calibration cup with pure water to a level approximately 1 mm below the column height. Gently shake the sensor's fluorescent membrane head after wetting it (ensuring the membrane surface is moist without droplets). Place the water quality sensor vertically on the calibration cup column (as shown on the right in the figure above, ensuring the water surface does not touch the fluorescent membrane). Wait 3 minutes for the reading to stabilize before calibrating the slope.

FAQ

Dissolved oxygen sensors measure oxygen levels in water bodies, serving as critical equipment in water quality monitoring, wastewater treatment, aquaculture, and environmental protection. They provide real-time insights into oxygen concentration changes, helping users determine whether water conditions support microbial growth or aquatic respiration. Continuous monitoring enables timely detection of pollution or hypoxia issues, offering precise guidance for adjusting water treatment processes or enhancing aeration in aquaculture.

The all-in-one fluorescence dissolved oxygen sensor is designed based on the principle of fluorescence quenching in physics, where specific substances extinguish excitation light. When excitation light strikes the fluorescent material on the surface of the fluorescent membrane head, the material becomes excited and emits fluorescence. The decay time of this fluorescence is influenced by the concentration of oxygen molecules on the surface of the fluorescent membrane head. By detecting the phase difference between the fluorescence and the excitation light and comparing it with an internal calibration curve, the concentration of oxygen molecules can be calculated. After temperature and salinity compensation, the final value is output.

During routine use, simply clean debris from the membrane head surface periodically to prevent algae or sediment buildup from affecting measurements. Some electrochemical dissolved oxygen sensors require regular electrolyte or membrane head replacement, while optical sensors demand less maintenance: Cleaning alone suffices. If response times slow or readings drift after prolonged use, inspect the membrane head for aging and replace it promptly to ensure data accuracy.
