5 Bases for measurement
5.1 Oxygen sensor
5.1.1 Explanation
The oxygen sensor is an active sensor. It consists of a platinum cathode, a lead anode
and potassium hydroxide (KOH) as an electrolyte. If oxygen is present, it is reduced
on the platinum cathode and the sensor delivers a signal. If no oxygen is present, no
signal is delivered. The anode is consumed by the oxygen measurement. The sensor
ages. Furthermore, the sensor loses water through the permeable membrane, in particular, when it is stored in dry air. Therefore, it should be checked and maintained
regularly and replaced as necessary.
DANGER
Potassium hydroxide!
The electrode contains potassium hydroxide. This causes burns. All contact with the
skin, clothing and eyes should be avoided. Nevertheless, should contact occur, take
the following measures.
– Eyes: Flush with flowing water for at least 15 minutes, seek medical attention!
– Skin: Wash with large amounts of water for several minutes!
– Clothing: Remove immediately!
– If swallowed: Drink large amounts of water, do not induce vomiting and seek med-
ical attention!
NOTE
Protective goggles must be worn for all of the following activities!
NOTE
Protective gloves must be worn for all of the following activities!
NOTE
Always store the oxygen sensor damp. It should always be stored in a storage bottle
filled with water or in a container filled with water. After storage for an extended period,
any potential deposit layers, such as algae, must be cleaned off of the membrane with
a soft paper towel prior to measurement.
Dissolved oxygen measuring device Bases for measurement | 5
B-H86.0.21.DB2-1.0 13 / 30
5.1.2 Design
Storage bottle
Shaft
Membrane head
Refill opening
Platinum electrode
Platinum electrode
If oxygen is present, it is reduced on the platinum electrode and the sensor delivers a
signal. Soiling on the platinum electrode or between the membrane and electrode can
influence the measurement.
Storage bottle
The storage bottle is provided to keep the membrane moist. The service life of the
sensor is extended as a result. Distilled or deionised water is in the storage bottle; do
not add any other liquids!
Membrane head
The membrane head is covered with a thin plastic membrane. Faulty measurements
will occur if the membrane is damaged or there are large air bubbles or even an air
bubble ring on the membrane. This can also be the cause if a sensor can no longer be
calibrated. The GWOK 02 membrane head is a spare part and can be re-ordered separately.
Refill opening
Electrolyte must be filled or added for the initial commissioning of a sensor which is
delivered dry, when performing maintenance or after use at high temperatures.
5.1.3 Service life
The sensor signal deteriorates relatively quickly at the end of the service life of the
sensors. The electrode evaluation in %, therefore, can only be used as a guide value.
A value of 70% does not mean that exactly 70% of the service life is still available,
rather that the electrode signal has 70% of a comparison signal.
NOTE
The sensor evaluation is updated by the measuring device after a successfully performed calibration of the oxygen sensor.
The nominal service life can be reduced significantly due to use. Influential factors include:
– Storage / operating temperature
– Contamination of the measured water
5 | Bases for measurement Dissolved oxygen measuring device
14 / 30 B-H86.0.21.DB2-1.0
– Mechanical stress of the sensor membrane
– Storage in dry air
– Continuous use in elevated carbon dioxide concentrations
5.1.4 Operating position
The oxygen sensor should be arranged vertically upwards with the connecting cable.
A slight angle of inclination does not impair the measurement.
5.1.5 Measurement accuracy
The measurement accuracy can be impaired by:
– An inadequate flow below the necessary value of approx. 30cm/sec.
– The water temperature and sensor temperature must be the same. The most ac-
curate measurements are provided when the measuring temperature is calibrated.
5.1.6 Residue
Visible residue collecting as a reaction product in the interior of the membrane cap on
the lead-oxide lead anode is red or brown from reaction with oxygen and lead carbonate and is white from reaction with carbon dioxide. These substances can collect on
the membrane, but do not normally impair the measuring function and can be mostly
removed in the course of maintenance of the sensor. Prior to screwing on the membrane cap, they should be removed as far as possible in order to prevent particles
from being trapped between the membrane and the platinum cup. A rapid or excessive formation of lead carbonate after commissioning is an indication of air in the
sensor. This is usually due to incomplete filling or a leak due to improper fitting of the
cap / fill screw or membrane leak.
5.2 Instructions for oxygen measurement
The following must be observed when measuring dissolved oxygen:
– The storage bottle must be removed before the measurement.
– The sensor must have been calibrated.
– The sensor and the liquid to be measured must have the same temperature. The
temperatures of the two must match.
– The sensor must be immersed at least 3 cm into the liquid to be measured.
– A flow speed of at least approx. 30 cm/sec is necessary for exact measurements.
Either stir continuously or use an appropriate stirring device
– The measurement is sensitive to jarring! Therefore, make sure that the container
is not struck with the sensor while stirring, because this can significantly impair the
measured value.
– The oxygen partial pressure, oxygen concentration in mg/l and oxygen saturation
in % are calculated from the sensor signal and temperature. In accordance with
DIN38408-C22, the measurement is relative to water-vapour-saturated air.
5.2.1 Salinity correction
With increasing salinity SAL, which is the value for the salt content in the water, the solubility of oxygen in water decreases, i.e. with the same oxygen partial pressure, fewer
mg of oxygen are dissolved per litre of water. To determine this oxygen concentration,
therefore, the salinity of the medium must be entered first; see Configuring parameters
of the configuration menu [}p.21]. A salinity correction is not necessary in freshwa-
Dissolved oxygen measuring device Bases for measurement | 5
B-H86.0.21.DB2-1.0 15 / 30
ter; the value is 0. A salinity of approx. 35 PSU is normal for sea water. The salinity
correction is adjusted to aqueous media having a chemical composition corresponding
to sea water. The International Oceanographic Tables (IOT) are used as a basis for
the correction.
5.2.2 Environmental pressure, water depth and air pressure
The environmental pressure, water depth and air pressure play an important role at
the place of measurement for the following points:
– Calculation of oxygen saturation in % SAT. Clean water can achieve 100 % satura-
tion in air. There must be no oxygen-depleting processes, such as biological decaying processes, chemical effects or oxygen enhancing processes, such as excessive ventilation or photosynthesis. This could result in an oversaturation above
100%.
– Calculation of the oxygen concentration in mg/l
– The valuation of calibration
Adjusting the pressure parameter on the product is recommended prior to calibration.
In the scope of measuring accuracy, specifying the current air pressure in the region
based on meteorological data or the standard pressure based on sea level is sufficient.
For example:
0 m above NN: 1013 hPa
300 m above NN: 978 hPa
600 m above NN: 943 hPa
1000m above NN: 899 hPa
5.3 Commissioning, filling and maintenance of the
sensor
Description
The sensor is delivered dry. Therefore, the sensor is well-suited for storage. The
sensor must be filled in good time before the measurement. A wait time of approx. 2
hours after filling should be planned in order to allow the sensor to stabilise. Commissioning with initial filling, filling and maintenance of the sensor are explained in the following chapter.
Prerequisite
– Protective goggles
– Protective gloves
– A suitable screwdriver
– Pipette
– Household towel
– KOH electrolyte
– A spare GWOK 02 membrane head, if applicable
Instruction
1. Unscrew the membrane head.
2. Unscrew the seal screw from the refill opening.
NOTE
If the sensor was already filled and deposits have formed, it should be cleaned with
KOH via the fill opening or removed. Loose residue can be rinsed out in the process.
The platinum cup on the front of the membrane must be clean. Remove any soiling or
electrolyte solution with a paper towel.
5 | Bases for measurement Dissolved oxygen measuring device
16 / 30 B-H86.0.21.DB2-1.0
3. Fill the pipette with the KOH electrolyte and initially fill the membrane head to ¾
full. Rinse off the excess electrolyte.
4. Slowly fill the sensor via the fill opening. In the process, tilt the sensor from side to
side and tap the shaft to force out air bubbles. The sensor holds approximately 5
ml. If air bubbles no longer appear and the refill opening is filled up to the rim with
KOH, screw the in the seal screw again.
5. Rinse off excess KOH and screw the sensor on with the membrane head. In the
process, if there are any recognisable air bubbles under the membrane, KOH
must be added.
6. After filling, the sensor should rest for 2 hours before a calibration is started.
Outcome of an action
The sensor has now been refilled. A sensor evaluation during the calibration should
produce a result of 100%.
NOTE
Should it no longer be possible to calibrate the sensor or it only delivers unstable
measurements, it must be maintained and/or the membrane head must be replaced

7.2.4 Adjustment of the measuring input
Description
The temperature input can be adjusted with the zero point correction and the gradient
correction. If an adjustment is made, you change the pre-adjusted factory settings.
This is signalled with the T.OF or T.SL when the product is switched on. The standard
settings of the zero point value and the gradient value is 0.00. It signals that no correc-
tion is made.
In order to adjust the product, you must first open the Adjustment menu. The menu is
opened as shown in the illustration.
Prerequisites
– Sufficiently full batteries are inserted in the product.
– The product is switched off.

Formula
Zero point correction:
Displayed value = measured value – T.OF
Gradient correction °C:
Display = (measured value – T.OF) * (1 + T.SL / 100)
Gradient correction °F:
Display = (measured value – 32 °F – T.OF) * (1 + T.SL / 100) + 32 °F
Example calculation
– Zero point correction T.OF to 0.00
– Gradient correction T.SL to 0.00
– Display unit UNIT to °C
– Display in ice water -0.2 °C

– Display in ice water setpoint T.OF = 0.0 °C
– Display in water bath 36.6 °C
– Display in water bath setpoint T.SL = 37.0 °C
– T.OF = display zero point correction – setpoint zero point
– T.OF = -0.2 °C – 0.0 °C = -0.2 °C
– T.SL = (setpoint gradient correction / (display gradient correction – T.OF) – 1) *100
– T.SL = (37.0 °C / (36.6 °C – (-0.2)) -1) *100 = 0.54
Outcome of an action
The changed value is saved and the Configuration menu is closed.
NOTE
If the product is switched off without saving the configuration, the last save value is reproduced on the next start-up of the product.
