DOD-2000/DOT-2000 Digital and Remote Current Fluorescence DO Sensor

Http:www.createc.cn/

I. Principle of measurement
Fluorescence DO meter is based on the quenching principle of special matter against active
fluorescence in physics. The outside surface of fluorescent cap covers a layer of black light
insulation materials to prevent from the interference of sunlight and other fluorescent materials in
water, the internal surface of which covers florescent materials. When the blue ray radiated from
LED shines the fluorescent materials on internal surface of fluorescent cap, it will excite the
fluorescent materials to emit red light. Through detection of the phase difference between red light
and blue light, calculate the concentration of oxygen molecule, and obtain accurate data by means
of temperature, air pressure and salinity compensation.
DOD-2000 digital sensor directly outputs digital signal of RS485 interface, uses Modbus
RTU communication protocol to directly connect the computer, display and wireless remote
repeater to realize undistorted teletransmission, which is the best mode to conform to internet+
combination at present.

DOT-2000(4 20)mA transmission fluorescent DO sensor directly outputs DO (4 20)mA

signal corrected interiorly, can be directly connected to PLC, mA conversion module, etc. to
switch data into system, achieving the wired teletransmission function. The external electronic box
between cables directly measures the atmosphere of environments to make the sensor have
one-click calibration operating function, convenient to use and operation.
The difference between fluorescence DO and the DO probe technique of polarography
electrochemistry principle lies in that the fluorescence method does not consume DO, the interior
not need electrolyte filling ， and even not need the frequently repeated calibration or frequent
cleaning (except apply to adhesion liquid), which provides much longer service life and more
stable and accurate readings. The measuring indication is unrelated with water flow rate, so it can
be used in the situation at low flow rate and even in stagnant condition.

IV. Calibration
4.1 Basic introduction
The measuring principle of DOD/DOT-2000 fluorescent DO transmitter is to measure the
solubility of oxygen in water, and the solubility of oxygen depends on the temperature, pressure
and salinity of water;
Different from polarography DO electrode, it does not need frequent calibration or frequent
cleaning, but in order to reach measuring accuracy, it can be subject to the specific applications or
the requirements of competent department. When the reading of fluorescent DO transmitter
deviates, the slope of transmitter shall be calibrated; when the fluorescent cap of sensor in dry
place for a long time or changing it, it shall need hydration and calibration again.
4.2 DO measurement influencing factors
1) Influence of temperature: the oxygen saturation in water is different in different
temperature, which refers to table as follows:
The oxygen saturation list in water in different temperature
(The atmospheric pressure is 101.3252kPa, the humidity is 100%RH and salt content is .

The inside of this transmitter has thermistor to detect the temperature of solution in real time,
and performs temperature compensation to oxygen concentration, which does not require
calibration.
(2) Atmospheric pressure influence: according to Henry law, the oxygen saturation solubility
in water is proportional to partial pressure. The partial pressure of oxygen is related to the altitude
in the region. It installs an air pressure sensor in junction box of the sensor, which can realize
correction and compensation function during calibration, so the client does not resets the air
pressure;
(3) Salinity in water: the salinity refers to the salt content in water. As DO in saline water is
clearly lower than that in running water, in order to get an accurate measurement, it shall consider
the influence of salt content on DO; the salinity in water is inversely proportional to oxygen
saturation solubility. The sensor system does not have salinity compensation function, and instead
it can use the programmable controller and other host computers for handling.
4.3 Calibration slope
Depending on the fluorescent oxygen quenching principle in the back of penetrative DO
materials, fluorescent DO sensor gets digital signal after mathematical treatment. In order to get
accurate data, it is better calibrate the sensor before using. During calibration, please put the
electrode in calibration environment for calibration. After calibration, calibrate it comparing with
standard value. The calibration steps are as follows:
1. Before calibration of fluorescent DO sensor, it should be soaked in water for proper
activation. If the sensor film cap is dry, it requires of soaking the sensor in water for pretty wet all
night, and fully hydrating the fluorescent film cap of sensor;
2. Air calibration: air calibration is simple and reliable, which is the most common calibration
method for DO sensor. Fully polarize the film cap of sensor, use soft tissue to dry the water on
surface of film cap, and then put the sensor in the air at least for 15 minutes. After the value is
stable, conduct the air calibration.
3. Calibration of given DO concentration: the fluorescent DO sensor can be calibrated in water
sample with known saturated DO concentration. Put the activated fluorescent DO sensor in the
water sample with saturated DO concentration and wait for 5 minutes.
4. Calibration method: after fluorescent DO sensor putting in air or water with saturated DO
concentration and it becoming stable, put one needle in the hole marked "calibration (CAL)" on
transmitter box, then press it for 3 seconds and release it.

V. Typical applications
Typical applications: effluent, river, lake and fishpond.
The aeration tank, nitrifying tank, denitrifying tank, aerobic tank and anaerobic tank in
sewage treatment plant.
Measure DO in course of fresh water and seawater aquiculture.
Monitor ecology water resource for river and lake, and environment monitoring;
Monitor chemical deoxidization and thermal deaerator, etc.
On-line DO analysis of water tank, municipal tap water, tap water network and water in other
fields.

VI. Maintenance and precautions of sensor

6.1 Maintenance
 Fluorescent DO sensor covers a transmitter and pre-soaking protection cap. There is a micro
SD card inside the transmitter. It has corresponding fluorescent cap on sensor. There are no special
requirements for storage.
6.1.1 Sensor fluorescent cap
6.1.1.1 Cleaning of sensor fluorescent cap
The sensor fluorescent cap is a coating protection layer with selective screening function to
oxygen molecules. Though the pollution of sensor fluorescent cap will not influence measuring
result, keeping clean can extend the service life. The cleaning method is as follows:
1) Use the flow of distilled water to clean the outer surface of sensor. If there are still any
fragments existing, please use wet soft cloth to clean it. Do not put the sensor in direct sunlight or
in a reflected light.
2) In the whole of service life of sensor, if the sensor is exposed in sun above one hour
totally, it will make the sensor fluorescent cap age so that cause it makes some mistakes.
3) The surface layer of sensor fluorescent cap should prevent from any pollutant, and
especially, after measuring the solution containing chemical substances, it shall use tissue or rag to
lightly wipe away the liquid residues on sensor fluorescent cap.

Maintenance Every 90 days Every year

Clean sensor
Check sensor and cap whether
is damaged
Replace the sensor fluorescent
cap
Calibrate sensor (if required As per the maintenance
by competent department) schedule required by
competent department
1. The cleaning frequency is determined as per specific applications. It is not proper for some
applications to have excessive or too low cleaning frequency.
6.1.1.2 Storage of sensor fluorescent cap
When not use sensor, it is advised that put the sensor and sensor fluorescent cap in a humid
environment. During transport, it should use the plastic protection cap to keep the sensor storage
environment be humid.
1) For short storage less than one week or that needs replacing frequently (like, every day), in
this case, the sensor should be stored in water or in humid place. The former may use a beaker or a
bottle with 1/2 water, while the latter may use a bottle containing some wet spring.
2）For a long-time storage (more than two weeks), put the sensor in a bottle containing some
wet spring and pay attention to keeping the spring be wet. In case the spring becomes dry during
storage, the DO detection value will have a little shift at first. I f use sensor fluorescent cap next
time, it shall be fully hydrated and calibrated again.
6.1.1.3 Replacement of sensor fluorescent cap
1) Replacing time of sensor fluorescent cap:
During normal use of sensor fluorescent cap (including micro machinery damage or micro
chemical corrosion), its service life is two years; but when sensor fluorescent cap is used over two
years or it is damaged, which can cause reading shifting, and then it is advised to change a new
one.
2) Replacing steps of sensor fluorescent:
(1) Counterclockwise screw off the old or damaged sensor fluorescent cap from the sensor;
(2) Carefully check the O-type ring on sensor whether has proper position and is damaged. If
its position is improper or crooked, apply the lubricating oil along the screw. If it is damaged,
replace the sensor fluorescent cap and O-type ring together;
(3) Open a new sensor fluorescent cap and check the inside, and make sure the inside is clean
and fully dry, unless use non-dust cloth to clear thoroughly.
(4) Clockwise screw the new sensor fluorescent cap onto the head of sensor, and make sure
which is installed in place;
(5) After installation of new sensor fluorescent cap, put the sensor into water (for use it often)
or store it in a bottle.
(6) Insert the micro SD card matching with new sensor fluorescent cap into the micro SD card
slot on transmitter.
(7) The sensor of sensor fluorescent cap should be replaced as per the above instrument
calibration procedure, and repeat to activate the sensor and calibrate it.
3) Precautions for replacing sensor fluorescent cap
(1) If install too tight or apply a lot of pressure, it is easy to damage the sensor fluorescent
cap.
(2) If install too loose, the sensor fluorescent cap will fall out and influence the measurement of
sensor;
(3) During removal and installation process, it is not advised that use any model tool, unless it is
likely to damage the sensor and the sensor fluorescent cap.
6.1.1.4 The shell and cable of sensor
The protective level of sensor is IP68. The measuring depth is depending to the length of
sensor.
The shell of sensor is made of stainless steel, so during cleaning process, it should prevent
from organic solvent with strong polarity, such as acetone, THFA , toluene, etc. In case of any
pollution by paint or organic residues, use the mild solvent to clean it, like alcohol or isopropanol.
