51970-88 DISSOLVED OXYGEN PROBE Introduction This instruction sheet provides information on the Hach Dissolved Oxygen Probe for use with the sens ™ 6 Dissolved Oxygen Meter. The Dissolved Oxygen Probe is a Clark-type amperometric sensor used to measure dissolved oxygen in aqueous solutions. It consists of an...
2. Fill the module cap about of the way full with Dissolved Oxygen Electrolyte Filling Solution, Hach Cat. No. 27591-26. 3. Hold the DO probe in a vertical position with the tip down and gently screw the module cap onto the tip. Electrolyte should leak out of the threads.
Refer to the meter instruction manual for more information on probe storage. Probe Polarization Hach dissolved oxygen probes are continuously polarized when they Note: Prior to operation, connect the are connected to the instrument. A steady reading will not be seen for probe to the meter.
DISSOLVED OXYGEN PROBE, continued Dissolved Oxygen Measurement After the probe is properly stabilized, chemically zeroed (for measurements below 1 mg/L), and calibrated, take measurements as follows: 1. Add the weight assembly to the probe if required (3 m or 15 m cable versions only).
Electrolyte Filling Solution is 1-2 months. Prior to replacing a membrane cap, rub the anode (the outer, metallic Note: Hach supplies a DO probe service kit stem of the probe that is visible when the membrane cap is removed) that includes one with the polishing cloth supplied with the probe.
