I N T R o D U C T I o N Thank you for purchasing the YSI Pro2030, an instrument from the YSI Professional Series product family. The Pro2030 measures dissolved oxygen, conductivity and temperature in water. The Pro2030 features an impact resistant and waterproof...
Press a third time to turn backlight off. Press and hold for 3 seconds to turn instrument off. Figure 1. Pro2030 with battery cover removed. Notice battery symbols indicating polarities. Menu Use to enter the System Setup menu from the Run screen.

INSTALLING THE DISSoLVED oXYGEN SENSoR The Pro2030 has two compatible dissolved oxygen sensors: Polarographic – This sensor has a black sensor body and is engraved with the model number 2003. Polarographic will be abbreviated Polaro in the instrument’s menu.

To exit the System Setup menu, press the down arrow key until the ESC - Exit box is highlighted, then press enter to return to the Run screen. When Do Local% is enabled, the Pro2030 corrects for barometric pressure on each Do measurement instead of during calibration.
Audio. When taking measurements at the same location (737 mmHg) in a 20°C fresh When Audio is enabled, the Pro2030 will beep twice to indicate stability when water sample that is completely air-saturated, the instrument would read: Auto Stable is enabled. The instrument will also beep when a key is pressed.
The Pro2030 has two compatible sensors for use with a field cable: Polarographic Membrane Kits: Item Color Material Description Polarographic – This sensor has a black sensor body and is engraved with 5908 Yellow 1.25 mil Faster response time and less flow the model number 2003.
Do% and mg/L or ppm can be enabled and displayed simultaneously. as temperature compensated Specific Conductance. If Specific Conductance is selected, the Pro2030 uses the temperature and conductivity values associated conductIvIty unIts (cond. unIts) with each measurement to calculate a specific conductance value compensated to a user selected reference temperature, see below.
Pressure Units submenu. Solids) value from conductivity. The multiplier is used to convert Specific Conductance in mS/cm to TDS in g/L. The Pro2030’s default value is 0.65. This language multiplier is highly dependent on the nature of the ionic species present in the water sample.
