    3.3 - Description of the sensors 3.3.1 Oxygen/temperature sensor – PODOA-PODOB The OPTOD dissolved oxygen sensor applies the luminescence-based optical measurement technology approved by ASTM International Method D888-05. An oxygen-sensitive layer is illuminated by a diode that emits blue light. The sensitive layer reacts by emitting red light (fluorescence).
  • Page 9 OPTOD sensor maintenance: The OPTOD sensor must be kept clean, especially the DO disk and its surrounding area. Any trace of biofilm might induce a measurement error. After each use, rinse the sensor before storing it. If any dirt builds up on the membrane, clean the head of the sensor with a little warm, soapy water. A sponge may be used, but do not use the "scouring"...
  • Page 10: Turbidity/Temperature Sensor – Pnepa-Pnepb

    3.3.2- Turbidity/temperature sensor – PNEPA-PNEPB The measuring principle used by the turbidity sensor is based on nephelometry: a diode emits infrared light (880 nm) and an IR receiving diode, set to one side at an angle of 90°, detects the amount of scattered light (standardized measurement).
  • Page 11 The NTU (Nephelometry Turbidity Unit) sensor must be kept clean, especially the head and surrounding area containing the optical fibers. Any trace of biofilm or dirt might induce a measurement error. After each use, rinse the sensor before storing it. If any dirt builds up on the sensor's head, clean it off with a little warm, soapy water.
  • Page 12: Conductivity/Temperature Sensor – Pc4Ea-Pc4Eb

    3.3.3- Conductivity/temperature sensor – PC4EA-PC4EB The operation of the sensor is based on 4-electrode conductivity technology: an alternating current at constant voltage is set up between a pair of graphite primary electrodes. The secondary electrodes, made from platinum, adjust the drive potential at the primary electrodes to compensate for any fouling.
  • Page 13 C4E sensor maintenance: The C4E sensor uses a 4–electrode conductivity measuring principle, and care must be taken to maintain these 4 electrodes in optimal working condition. After each use, rinse the sensor before storing it. To clean the electrodes (made from graphite and platinum), insert and retract an abrasive strip through the slot in the sensor, under a stream of running water.

The coupling between the coils varies depending on the conductivity of the conducting solution present.
  • Page 18 Temperature calibration: The temperature sensor is calibrated annually, and is a 2-step process: - step 1 (offset): the sensor is placed in a container containing a water bath and ice, - step 2 (gain): the sensor is placed in a medium (air or water in a temperature-controlled bath) at a known temperature.
