YSI 58 - Manual (Page 8)

The 5905 probe is designed for use with all YSI dissolved oxygen meters, except for the YSI 55, 85
or YSI 95. The 5905 probe comes in several versions, designed to fit different bottle sizes.
5905
5° taper per side to fit U.S. Standard BOD
bottles.
5905 - J
Includes an adapter to fit 5° taper per side
smaller bottles with built - in overflow funnels.
5905 - K
Includes a s 19 funnel.
5905 - L
Includes a s 24 funnel.
5905 - W
6
″ long probe for use with wine bottles.
3.1.3 YSI 5739 DO PROBE
For user convenience, the 5739 probe is equipped with a disconnecting cable to facilitate changing
cable lengths and replacing damaged cables or probes. The probe and cable assembly is held together
with a threaded retaining nut. The connection is not designed for casual disconnection and should
only be disconnected when necessary. For sample stirring with the 5739 probe, the 5795A
Submersible Stirrer has a dual-purpose cable to which both stirrer and probe are connected.
YSI 5795A SUBMERSIBLE STIRRER
The YSI 5795A Stirrer, which can only be used
with the 5739 probe, features a single cable for
both probe and stirrer to permit convenient
manipulation and storage.
Figure 1
When a stirrer and probe are assembled, the
stirrer agitates the sample directly in front of the
sensor by means of a rotating eccentric weight
that causes the spring-mounted, sealed motor
housing to vibrate. An impeller on the end of
the motor housing flushes the fluid being
assayed across the sensor surface.
3.1.4 YSI 5718 DO FIELD PROBE
The YSI 5718 field probe has a permanently attached cable and no pressure compensation.
3.1.5 YSI 5750 BOD BOTTLE PROBE
The YSI 5750 probe is similar in design to the 5739, but has a tapered body designed to fit standard
US BOD bottles. It does not have a stirrer or cap membranes. Agitation of the sample must be
provided by other means, such as a magnetic stirrer.
