The dissolved oxygen sensor has been calibrated at the factory to the specifications listed
on
Specifications on page
dissolved oxygen technology, sensor calibration is seldom or never necessary. The
calibration procedures will result in an instrument offset or gain correction and may be
performed if required by regulatory agencies. The air calibration is the most accurate
method. The calibration by comparison method is the least accurate and is therefore not
recommended.
For continued accuracy and repeatability, the manufacturer recommends replacing the
sensor cap after one year of operation.
1. Remove the sensor from the process stream and wipe with a wet cloth to remove
debris and biological growth.
2. Place the sensor in the supplied Calibration Bag, add a small amount of water
(25–50 mL) and secure the bag to the sensor body.
3. Lay the bagged probe on a flat surface where it will not be exposed to a heat source.
4. Tap the bottom-left of the screen to display the pop-up toolbar and press
5. From the Main Menu, select SENSOR SETUP and press
6. Select the appropriate sensor if more than one is attached and press
7. Select CALIBRATE and press
8. Select AIR CAL and tap on the dark-blue highlighted area to the far-right. Select the
available Output Mode (Active, Hold, or Transfer) from the list box and press
confirm.
9. "Move the sensor to air" will be displayed if the sensor is moved to air (in the
calibration bag).
10. The Air Calibration procedure will begin and "Wait to Stabilize" will be displayed. The
current DO and temperature readings will be displayed. Press
11. The calibration will automatically occur when the reading stabilizes or when
selected to base the calibration on the currently displayed value. Two to three minutes
for the reading to stabilize is typical, however, if it has not stabilized after 45 minutes,
the display will ready "Unable to Calibrate". After calibration, one of the responses in
Table 6 on page 33
will be displayed.
12. Follow the prompts to return the sensor to the process.
5. Due to the inherent accuracy and stability of the luminescent
