Overview Oxi 730
Caution
Only connect probes to the instrument that cannot feed
excessive voltages or currents (> SELV and > circuit with
current limiter). Almost all commercial electrodes -
especially WTW electrodes - meet these requirements.
Caution
On socket 2, use the WTW probe StirrOx G only.

2 Safety
This operating manual contains basic instructions that you
must follow during the commissioning, operation and
maintenance of the instrument. Consequently, all
responsible personnel must read this operating manual
before working with the instrument. The operating manual
must always be available within the vicinity of the
instrument.
Target group This measuring instrument was developed for use in the
laboratory. Thus, we assume that, as a result of their
professional training and experience, the operators will
know the necessary safety precautions to take when
handling chemicals.

To transmit to the interface, you must connect the interface
cable. The integrated printer is then switched off
automatically.
Note
If you connect a recorder (analog output), both the output to
the integrated printer and the digital output are switched off.

4.3 Calibrating
Why calibrate? D. O. probes age. This changes the slope of the probes. As
a result, an inexact measured value is displayed. Calibration
determines the current slope of the probe and stores it in the
instrument.
Calibration protocol The calibration protocol contains the calibration data of the
current calibration. You can call up the calibration protocol
by outputting the data storage ().
91
Operation Oxi 730
Note
You can automatically print out a calibration protocol after
the calibration. To do so, switch on the printer before the
calibration (Print LED lights up green) *. After a valid
calibration, the protocol is printed.

5.2 Cleaning
Occasionally wipe the outside of the measuring instrument
with a damp, lint-free cloth. Disinfect the housing with
isopropanol as required.
Caution
The housing is made of synthetic material (ABS). Thus,
avoid contact with acetone or similar detergents that contain
solvents. Remove any splashes immediately.
5.3 Disposal
Packing The measuring instrument is sent out in a protective
transport packing.
We recommend: Keep the packing material. It protects the
instrument against damage during transport.
Batteries This note refers to the battery regulation that applies in the
Federal Republic of Germany. We would ask
end-consumers in other countries to follow their local
statutory provisions.
Note
In compliance with §14 of the BATTERY REGULATION, we
would like to point out that this instrument contains batteries.
Batteries that have been removed must only be disposed of
at the recycling facility set up for this purpose or via the retail
outlet.
It is illegal to dispose of them in household refuse.

Glossary
AutoRead Supervises the probe drift and releases the measured value
only after the stability criterion has been reached. Thus, the
highest precision and reproducibility is achieved.
Oxygen saturation Relation of the pO2 in the test sample to the pO2 of air at the
current air pressure. Example: 100% means that the test
sample and the ambient air have the same pO2 – air and test
sample are balanced. According to DIN EN 25814, the
oxygen saturation was also referred to as air saturation up
to now.
Oxygen partial pO2 in mbar, i.e. the gas pressure that would prevail if only
pressure O2 was available.
