1.1 Features
• The sensor maintains stable characteristics over a prolonged period.
It stabilizes in a initial time for electrolysis of approximately a half a day.
The sensor has a structure less susceptible to the effects of deterioration in an electrolyte or
contamination of the permeable membrane. Consequently, you can make precise measurements in a variety of processes.
• You can choose the desired measurement point according to the nature of the solution being measured.
You can submerse the DO30G Dissolved Oxygen Sensor to a depth of 3 m and then put it in
regular use (the sensor can withstand a pressure of up to 100 kPa). The sensor can be assembled into a immersion type holder or a oating ball holder. The sensor, when assembled
in the immersion type holder, allows automatic cleaning of the sensor with jet-sprayed water
or air at regular intervals.
• The sensor is easy to service and very economical.
Dissolved oxygen sensors usually deteriorate with time and ultimately come to the end of
their service life. For the DO30G Dissolved Oxygen Sensor, only those parts whose service
lives are relatively short, such as the membrane, may be replaced. Thus, running costs can
be reduced. In addition, servicing and maintaining the sensor requires no special skills and
is done quickly.

3.2 Installation
Normally, the DO30G Dissolved Oxygen Sensor is assembled into the PH8HG Guide Pipe,
PB350G Angled Floating Ball Holder or DOX8HS Immersion Type Holder and submersed to the
point best suited to obtain precise measurement results. This section explains how to select the
measurement point and sensor holder.
3.2.1SelectingtheMeasurementPoint
Normally, a location that meets the following requirements may be selected as the measurement
point.
l The measured value is representative among the values available for the solu-
tion under measurement (SUM).
Avoid choosing a location where the solution is unevenly distributed, since heavy hunting may
result in the measured value. Also, avoid locations where bubbles occur frequently.
Note that, if a measured solution running at a high ow rate contains particles of sand, the permeable membrane of the sensor may be damaged.
Do not install the sensor at a depth greater than 3 m.
3.2.2 Selecting the Sensor Holder
Each holder or tting where the DO30G Dissolved Oxygen Sensor is assembled has the following characteristics.
Choose a holder that suits the liquid to be measured and the measurement location.
[PH8HGGuidePipe]
The holder is made of PVC resin and is 2 m long. The sensor is suspended down inside the cylindrical barrel of the holder. This pipe is conveniently suited for the measurement of a solution free
from bubbles or pollutants.

The tting is designed to contain the sensor in a sphere that oats on a liquid. This tting is immune to large variations in the liquid level. Since the wet part is smooth and less susceptible to
catching ocs, the sensor does not trap rubbish that mixes in with the SUM (Related description: See Subsection 3.2.3). The oat is supported by an arm and does not move away from the
measurement point even if the SUM is owing.
When using this holder the membrane damage detector function in the converter can be activated.
The holder holds the sensor at an angle of 45°. Consequently, bubbles will not stick to the permeable membranne. Any pollutants in the SUM can be automatically cleaned off at regular intervals

3.2.3 Asembling the Sensor in the Holder
For details on how to assmble the sensor in the holder or tting, see the appropriate instruction
manual for each holder or tting.
Exercise care not to contaminate or wet the tip of the sensor cable when assembling the sensor.
If you will not begin wiring the sensor cable immediately, take the protective measures necessary
to prevent the assembly from being damaged.
The stopper projecting from the membrane assembly locknut serves to prevent the membrane
from being in contact with the ground and thus being damaged. If there are ocs in the SUM, the
stopper may become clogged. Thus, assemble the sensor to the holder so that the stopper is
positioned downstream in the SUM.
3.3 Connecting the Sensor Cable
The cable of the dissolved oxygen sensor must be connected to the terminals of the dissolved
oxygen converter. For information on connections, refer to the following instruction manu-
Now the explanation on the installation and wiring is completed. For details on operation during
startup or for regular operation after the entire measuring system is brought into operation, refer
to the DO402G Dissolved Oxygen Converter instruction manual (IM 12J05D02-01E), the DO202/
FLXA21 2-wire Transmitter instruction manual (IM 12J05C01-01E/IM 12A01A02-01E). The main-
tenance and service of the dissolved oxygen sensor is explained in Section 4 that follows.

CAUTION
4. Maintenance
This section describes the inspection and maintenance procedure applicable to just the dissolved oxygen sensor alone. For comprehensive inspection and tuning of the measuring system, such as calibration, see the DO402G Dissolved Oxygen Converter instruction manual (IM
12J05D02-01E), the DO202/FLXA21 2-wire Transmitter instruction manual (IM 12J05C01-01E/
IM 12A01A02-01E).
An inspection (visual) of the permeable membrane must be made whenever the sensor is calibrated. Any dirt on the membrane will adversely affect your measurements. If the dirt is spread
over the membrane, dip the membrane into clean water and gently wipe the dirt off with a soft
cloth or lint-free paper. If the dirt will not come off easily, apply a neutral detergent to the membrane so it will be easier to remove the dirt. Clean the membrane with clean water. Finally, make
sure the permeable-membrane assembly locknut is not loose.
Exercise care to avoid wrinkling or damaging the permeable membrane during inspection.
Wrinkling and other damage prevent normal membrane operation.
4.1.2CheckingofMembraneAssemblyLocknut
At every calibration, check that the membrane assembly locknut is not loose. If it is, retighten it.
In addition, if a phenomenon which is considered to be due to a change in the electrolyte qual-
ity (e.g., showing extremely low measured values) is observed after the locknut is retightened,
replace the electrolyte according to the directions in Subsection 4.2.1.

4.2 Inspection If Failure Occurs
If the electrolyte and/or lead electrode within the sensor unit deteriorates and ultimately completes its service life, anomalies, such as the failure to make a span adjustment, will occur. This
section deals especially with the inspection and service of the dissolved oxygen sensor needed if
any anomaly is found in a detected signal. If you fail to pinpoint the cause of failure to a particular
location, follow the instructions in Section 4.2.1 and subsequent sections in sequence. One or
more of the following measures are necessary to remedy the failure.
• Replacement of electrolyte/permeable-membrane assembly
Note : When the membrane is used in the oat holder, the converter membrane damage detector function can be used. This function
generates an "E4" error message if the membrane is damaged.
Check the permeable-membrane assembly for possible wrinkling or damage. Also, check that
the permeable-membrane assembly locknut is not loose. If the locknut is securely tightened and
the membrane is normal (no wrinkling or damage is found), proceed to the instruction procedure
in Section 4.2.2. If the locknut is loosen or the membrane is wrinkled or damaged, replace the
electrolyte and the permeable-membrane assembly (including the O-ring seal) as well.
When replacing the electrolyte and permeable-membrane assembly, you must provide a syringe
and beaker that are used to replace the electrolyte and an abrasive and gauze to polish the silver
electrodes. Provide these materials along with the spare electrolyte solution and assembly used
in the replacement.
PrecautionsinHandlingtheElectrolyte
The potassium-hydroxide electrolyte (KOH) is a highly alkaline solution containing potassium
hydroxide as the major constituent. Exercise extreme care to protect your body from contact
with the solution and to prevent the solution from getting into your eyes. Should your skin or eyes
become exposed to the solution, immediately wash the exposed area with clean water. If the
solution gets in your eyes, consult an eye doctor after ushing them with water. The electrolyte
is a colorless corrosive and, therefore, there is the risk of its being mishandled. Never leave any
residual solution in the syringe.
(1) After having removed the dissolved oxygen sensor from the holder, clean dirt off the wet
part.
(2) Loosen the locknut and remove the permeable-membrane assembly. Also, remove the O-
ring.

(5) Make sure the sealed surfaces are free from dust. Install a new O-ring.
(6) Inject 8 ml of electrolyte into the sensor body with the syringe (see Figure 4.2).
Note: Always use an electrolyte prepared by Yokogawa for exclusive use with the DO30G.
First, ll the sensor with the electrolyte (approx. 9 ml) and then remove approximately 1 ml
so that a layer of air is present inside the sensor body.
(7) Install the permeable-membrane assembly.
It is strictly not possible to allow a layer of air to form between the membrane and the sil-
ver electrode. To prevent such a layer from forming, rst apply a drop of electrolyte to the
surface of the silver electrode. Lightly press the permeable-membrane assembly so that the
O-ring touches the groove on the inside. Tighten the locknut fully without letting the assembly turn.
Figure 4.2 Injecting the Electrolyte
All these steps complete the inspection procedure for the permeable-membrane assembly. By
way of precaution, make sure the membrane is free from wrinkling. Note that a stable detection
signal is not possible right after relling with the electrolyte. Make a zero or span adjustment approximately a half a day or longer after relling. It may indicate a minus value for about 10 min-
utes zero adjustment.

4.2.2 Checking of RTD in the Sensor
The resistance temperature detector (RTD) incorporated in the DO30G sensor is a Pt 1000 Ω
RTD. This Pt 1000 Ω RTD indicates a resistance value of about 1097 Ω at 25 °C. Check the RTD
by measuring the resistance value between conductors 11 (T1) and 12 (T2). If the resistance
value differs greatly from the above value, the sensor must be replaced.
4.2.3JudgmentofLeadElectrodeFault
If no failure is found in the checks in Subsections 4.2.1 and 4.2.2, the cause of the problem may
be the end of the service life of the lead electrode or a loose connection of the conductors. In
either case, the sensor must be replaced.
[ServiceLifeofLeadElectrode]
The lead electrode mounted in the sensor body gradually erodes due to battery action. When
span adjustment becomes impossible for a sensor which has been used in succession over a
long period even if the electrolyte/membrane assembly has been replaced, it shows that the lead
electrode has reached the end of its service life. The service life of the lead electrode varies with
the temperature of the SUM or the amount of dissolved oxygen. Under general operating conditions, it should be approximately three to four years.

Must be replaced periodically, either once every 6 to 8
months or if a span adjustment is not possible. Eight to 9
ml are consumed with each replacement.
Normally, these parts must be replaced at the same time
that the sensor is relled with electrolyte. If the sensor is used in a slurry solution, these parts may require
replacement more often due to abrasion or damage.
Calibration must be carried out at a predetermined
interval (the frequency of calibration varies depending
on the operating conditions). Calibration must also be
performed when, for example, the electrolyte is replaced.
Approximately 15 grams of the reagent is needed to prepare 1 liter of the calibration solution for zero adjustment.
Used when replacing the electrolyte.
Used when calibration is carried out or when the electrolyte is replaced.
When the permeable-membrane assembly is replaced,
the silver electrode must be polished until it becomes
glossy. Only an extremely marginal amount (approx. 0.5
mg) of the abrasive is consumed with each polishing.

Even parts with a long service life are not completely free from possible failure. It is recommended that users have on hand spare parts for those parts which, if they become defective, will make
it impossible to continue measurement.
It is recommended that users have spare parts for the locknut on hand in preparation for possible
failure.
[SpareSensorAssembly]
If the sensor assembly remains unused over a prolonged period, the electrolyte may change in
quality or some anomalies may occur in the permeable membrane. Consequently, these materials must be replaced with new ones before you can use the sensor. Although it is desirable
that users always try to avoid storing the sensor assembly for long periods, the manufacturer
recommends that users keep a spare part on hand for the sensor assembly in anticipation of an
unexpected failure. Do not store the sensor with the electrolyte removed. Otherwise, any residual
electrolyte may become concentrated, harming the lead electrode or other mechanisms. If the
sensor must be stored with the electrolyte removed, completely clean the inside of the sensor
with clean water (repeat injecting and draining the water several times) before it is stored.
Note: If the sensor is stored without the electrolyte, repeat injecting and draining the electrolyte several times before you reuse it.

Appendix 1. How to Remove the DO30G Membrane Protective
Cap
A black rubber cap is attached to the tip of the DO30G to protect the membrane.
Pulling off the cap forcefully causes a negative pressure inside the protective cap, because the
protective cap sticks to the DO30G, and may stretch the membrane or damage it.
Furthermore, removing the cap by twisting it may loosen the membrane assembly and affect the
measurement results.
Please read the following notes and removal procedure in advance in order to prevent damage
and loosening of the membrane assembly from occurring.
