    Oxygen Sensor escape. Unscrew slightly to release any pressure and then gently screw the cap on until it is just tight. Note: Do not over tighten – the membrane should not be pressurised (bulging away from the cathode tip), as it will become thin and oversensitive. STEP 2: Connecting ...

    Oxygen Sensor 3. The current range will be highlighted. Select the required range and click on OK. Close Sensor Config. The range setting will be retained until changed by the user. With some EASYSENSE units it is possible to change the range from the unit. Please refer to the EASYSENSE unit’s user manual. STEP 4: Calibration Once the correct range has been selected then calibrate the electrode.
  • Page 5: Storage

    Oxygen Sensor  The gas permeable membrane isolates the sensor elements from the solution on test but allows the oxygen to enter. This transport can cause the readings to begin to shift after 4 to 5 hours. If possible, recalibrate every two hours. ...

    Oxygen Sensor  Make up a paste of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda - NaHCO3) with some water, leave the tip in the paste for at least an hour then rub with some of the paste until the tip is clean and shiny.
  • Page 7: Converting Dissolved Oxygen % Saturation Data To Oxygen In Mg/L

    Oxygen Sensor A volume of water in contact with air will absorb air, and hence oxygen, until the pressure the absorbed oxygen exerts at the air-water interface equals the pressure exerted at the same interface by the oxygen in the air. At this point, the water is said to be saturated with oxygen. The amount of oxygen actually absorbed is quite small (about five to ten parts of oxygen to one million parts of water).
  • Page 8: Troubleshooting

    Oxygen Sensor The silver anode is held at a potential of +750 mV (the polarising voltage) with respect to the gold cathode. Oxygen is reduced at the cathode in the reaction:  2H + 4H + 4e creating a point of zero Oxygen tension (partial pressure) at the cathode. Provided that diffusion through the membrane is the rate-controlling step in the path of the Oxygen to the cathode, the signal current that flows from the anode to the cathode is proportional to the concentration (partial pressure) of Oxygen in the sample.
