INTRODUCTION DO2 INSTRUCTIONS What is the DO2 Sensor? The Seametrics DO2 Smart Sensor is the next generation in trouble-free oxygen sensing design. Utilizing fluorescence of a stable, immobilized ruthenium-based film matrix, the sensor provides precision optical transmission and detection to measure oxygen concentration in the fluid outside of the sensor.
® • Read via SDI-12 protocol. • Display readings on a panel meter. If you want to use one of these methods, see Appendix C or contact Seametrics for further details. Seametrics • 253.872.0284 Page 5 seametrics.com...
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION DO2 INSTRUCTIONS Installing the Sensor Lower the sensor to the desired depth. Fasten the cable to the well head using tie wraps or a weather proof strain-relief system. Take a measurement to insure the sensor is not installed below its maximum range.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION DO2 INSTRUCTIONS Real-time readings default to a 1 second interval for 1 minute, to adjust enter your desired settings here: To save this data to the Reports section click the button located next to the Single button in the Real-Time tab. This will permanently save this real-time data set to your Reports database.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION DO2 INSTRUCTIONS Set Up Logging Window Here you will name your data file and set up the recording interval and duration of each logging phase. Select your desired recording interval and duration for each phase, Aqua4Plus 2.0 will display the available memory at the bottom of the window.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION DO2 INSTRUCTIONS Reports Data downloaded from your sensor is stored in the Reports section of Aqua4Plus 2.0 for viewing and editing. The files will be saved to default data folder on your PC as well. See Program Settings for default data folder location.

DO2 INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION AND OPERATION The Information tab is a new feature allowing users to add metadata to their reports such as site location, field notes, or comments. The Schedule tab will display the logging setup details for the report.
Maintenance Sensor: There are no user-serviceable parts. If problems develop with sensor stability or accuracey, contact Seametrics. If the unit has been exposed to hazardous materials, do not return without notification and authorization. Cable: Cable can be damaged by abrasion, sharp objects, twisting, crimping, crushing, or pulling.
Next, check the cable for cracking or fraying. If the connections and cable appear OK, but the readings are still erratic, the transmitter may be damaged. Contact Seametrics for evaluation and repair. Erratic and erroneous readings can also occur due to improper grounding. See Grounding Issues, below.

APPENDIX A: TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS DO2 INSTRUCTIONS POWER External Power Pack Required (9-15VDC) Seametrics Power Pack described below. Other power options available. Contact Seametrics for details. Seametrics Power Pack Enclosure Material Polycarbonate (1P67) Enclosure Dimentions 5.5” x 3.1” x 2.6” (14 x 7.9 x 6.6 cm)
If there are any sessions on the sensor, upload any data you want and then erase the session before continuing. Place the DO2 sensor in your reference solution, allow a few minutes for temperature to stabilize. Obtain the DO saturation using an alternate method, then select the calibration button.
Power On Function In order to save power, the power to the sensing probe on the DO2 is normally off, even when the DO2 sensor itself is powered. The sensing probe requires a warm-up or stabilization time before returning valid readings.
To force the power off immediately after a reading, for power savings, write a zero to the register. If the power to the entire DO2 sensor is turned off, this value defaults to 30 (or 7.5 seconds).
