  • Page 11: Part 4 - Sensor Assembly

    Part 4 – Sensor Assembly Oxygen Sensor Preparation The oxygen sensor supplied with the Q45D is shipped dry. It will not operate until it is prepared by adding electrolyte and a membrane. Preparation of the sensor for operation must be done carefully. The procedure should be done by a qualified technician, and it should only be done when the system is ready for operation.

    Part 4 – Sensor Assembly Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Figure 6 - Submersible Sensing Module Assy Follow the procedure below to prepare the D.O. sensor module for operation: 1. Unscrew the electrolyte chamber from the assembled sensor and also remove the vent screw from the side of the sensor body.

  • Page 13: Flow Type D.o. Sensor

    Part 4 – Sensor Assembly Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen The sensor is now ready for operation. The membrane should be stretched tightly across the tip of the sensor. CAUTION: When handling the assembled sensor, do not set the sensor on its tip or damage to the membrane will result.

  • Page 14: Part 5 - Operation

    Part 5 – Operation General To turn the system ON, simply press and hold the MENU key for approximately 5 seconds and the display will come on. To turn the unit off, press and hold the ENTER key until the display shuts off (about 3 seconds).

  • Page 16: Voltage Outputs

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Battery Power Circuit Board The Q45 portable instrument is primarily operated by software settings. However, there are also a few hardware details on the battery circuit board to note. The battery board is a circuit board that sits in the rear of the Q45 enclosure, and connects to the Q45 AUX port through a ribbon cable.

  • Page 17: Software Interface

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Software Interface The software user interface for the Q45 Series instrument consists of a custom display and a membrane keypad. All functions are accessed from this user interface (no internal jumpers, pots, etc.).

  • Page 18: Keys

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Keys All user configurationsoccur through the use of four membrane keys. These keys are used as follows: MENU/ESC To scroll through the menu section headers or to escape from anywhere in software. The escape sequence allows the user to back out of any changesin a logical manner.

  • Page 19: Software

    Icon B power is low. Software The software of the Q45D is organized in an easy to follow menu-based system. All user settings are organized under five menu sections: Measure, Calibration [CAL], Configuration [CONFIG], Control [CONTROL] and Diagnostics [DIAG]. Note: The default Measure Menu is display-only and has no menu icon.

  • Page 20: Softwarenavigation

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen SoftwareNavigation Within the CAL, CONFIG, CONTROL, and DIAG menu sections are a list of selectable items. Once a menu section (such as CONFIG) has been selected with the MENU key, the user can access the item list in this section by pressing either the ENTER key or the UP arrow key.

  • Page 22: Measure Menu

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Measure Menu [MEASURE] The default menu for the system is the display-only menu MEASURE. This menu is a display-only measurement menu, and has no changeable list items.When left alone, the instrument will automatically return to this menu after approximately 30 minutes.

  • Page 23: Configuration Menu

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Configuration Menu [CONFIG] The Configuration Menu contains all of the general user settings: Entry Lock This function allows the user to lock out unauthorized tampering with instrument settings. All settings may be viewed while the instrument is locked, but they cannot be modified.

  • Page 24: Control Menu

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Zero Filter The Q45D allows the user to program a value near zero below which the monitor will read zero. Because sensors rarely have a perfect zero stability, this zero filter eliminates occasional displays of numbers that are not meaningful.

  • Page 25: Diagnostics Menu

    Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen select the desired numerical value. Press ENTER to store the new value. Output #1 will always be in units of ppm, as it is fixed to track dissolved oxygen. Output #2 will be in either units of ppm or C/F, depending on whether dissolved oxygen or temperature is set for Out#2 in the CONFIG menu.
  • Page 26 Part 5 – Operation Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Sim Out The Sim Out function allows the user to simulate the dissolved oxygen level of the instrument to check the output settings. The user enters a ppm value directly onto the screen, and the output responds as if it were actually receiving the signal from the sensor.

  • Page 27: Part 6 - Calibration

    Under normal conditions (3 - 5 ppm) the degradation occurs at a very slow rate. To account for this degradation, the Q45D system should be re-calibrated at regular intervals. In addition, the frequency of calibration must be determined by the application.
  • Page 28 Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Part 6 - Calibration 5. The system now begins acquiring data for the calibration value. As data is gathered, the units for ppm and temperature may flash. Flashing units indicate that this parameter is unstable. The calibration data point acquisition will stop only when the data remains stable for a pre-determined amount of time.

    Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Part 6 - Calibration 6. The display will prompt the user to hold the sensor in air and press ENTER. If the sensor has already been removed, reached temperature equilibrium, and the calibration bag has been installed, press the ENTER key.

  • Page 30: Temperaturecalibration

    Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Part 6 - Calibration 6. If accepted, the screen will display the message PASS with the new sensor zero reading (offset), then it will return to the main measurement display. If the calibration fails, a message indicating the cause of the failure will be displayed and the FAIL icon will be turned on.

  • Page 31: Part 7 - System Maintenance

    Part 7 – System Maintenance General The Q45D/60 Dissolved oxygen System will generally provide unattended operation over long periods of time. With proper care, the system should continue to provide measurements indefinitely.For reliable operation, maintenance on the system must be done on a regular schedule.

  • Page 32: Lead Anodereplacement

    Part 8 – System Maintenance Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Lead AnodeReplacement Galvanic D.O. sensors consume the lead electrode during normal operation. As oxygen is measured, lead is converted to lead oxide, and after a period of time, the lead is expended.

  • Page 33: Part 8 - Service

    Part 8 – Service General The information included in this section is intended to be used in an attempt to quickly resolve an operational problem with the system. During any troubleshooting process, it will save the most time if the operator can first determine if the problem is related to the analyzer, sensor, or some external source.

  • Page 35: Sensor Tests

    Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Part 9 - Service Sensor Tests Check the membrane condition. A membrane that is not stretched smoothly across the tip of the sensor will cause unstable measurements. If necessary, change membrane and electrolyte. Dissolved oxygen sensors can be tested with a digital voltmeter (DVM) to determine if a major sensor problem exists.

  • Page 36: Figure 13 - Reference - Barometric Pressure Conv

    Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen Part 9 - Service If you suspect that water has gotten into a cable connection on a flow type sensor or into the plug connection of a submersible sensor, disconnect the cable and allow the parts of the sensor to sit in a warm place for 24 hours. If water in the connector is the problem, it should dry out sufficiently to allow normal sensor operation.
