PFDO-800 Fluorescence Dissolved Oxygen Sensor Operation Manual

Short Description:

The dissolved oxygen sensor measures the dissolved oxygen by the fluorescence method, and the emitted blue light is irradiated on the phosphor layer. The fluorescent substance is stimulated to emit red light, and the oxygen concentration is inversely proportional to the time when the fluorescent substance returns to the ground state. By using this method to measure the dissolved oxygen, it will not produce oxygen consumption, thus assuring data stability, reliable performance, no interference, and simple installation and calibration.

Chapter 2 Product Information
The dissolved oxygen sensor measures the dissolved oxygen by the fluorescence method, and the emitted blue light is irradiated on the phosphor layer. The fluorescent substance is stimulated to emit red light, and the oxygen concentration is inversely proportional to the time when the fluorescent substance returns to the ground state. By using this method to measure the dissolved oxygen, it will not produce oxygen consumption, thus assuring data stability, reliable performance, no interference, and simple installation and calibration.
The product is widely used in sewage plant, water plant, water station, surface water, farming, industry and other fields. Dissolved oxygen sensor appearance is shown as figure 1.

Chapter 3 Installation
3.1 Installation of Sensors
The specific installation steps are as follows:
a. Install the 8 (mounting plate) on the railing by the pool with 1 (M8 U-shape clamp) at the sensor mounting position;
b. Connect 9 (adapter) to 2 (DN32) PVC pipe by glue, pass the sensor cable through Pcv pipe until the sensor screws into 9 (adapter), and do waterproof treatment;
c. Fix 2 (DN32 tube) onto 8 (mounting plate) by 4 (DN42U-shape clamp).

Chapter 6 Maintenance
In order to obtain the best measurement results, it is very necessary to maintain the sensor regularly. Maintenance mainly includes cleaning, inspecting damage of the sensor, and periodic calibration.
6.1 Sensor Cleaning
It is recommended that the sensor should be cleaned at regular intervals (usually 3 months, depending on the site environment) to ensure the accuracy of the measurement.
Use water to clean the outer surface of the sensor. If there is still debris, wipe it with a damp soft cloth. Do not place the sensor in a direct sunlight or near radiation. In the entire life of the sensor, if the total sun exposure time reaches to one hour, it will cause the fluorescent cap aging and going wrong, and consequently leading to the wrong reading.

6.2 Inspection on the Damage of Sensor
According to the appearance of sensor to check if there is damage; if any damage is found, please contact after-sales service maintenance center in time for replacement to prevent malfunction of sensor caused by water from the damaged cap.

6.3 Preservation of Sensor
A.When you are not using it, please cover the product’s original protective cap to avoid direct sunlight or exposure. In order to protect the sensor from freezing, the DO probe should be stored in a place where it will not freeze.
B.Keep the probe clean before storing it for a long time. Keep the equipment in a shipping box or a plastic container with electric shock protection. Avoid touching it with hand or other hard objects in case of scratching the fluorescent cap.
C.It is forbidden that the fluorescent cap is exposed to direct sunlight or exposure.

6.4 Replacement of Measurement Cap
The sensor's measurement cap needs to be replaced when it’s damaged. In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement, it is recommended to change it every year or it is necessary to be replaced when the cap is found severely damaged during the inspection.
