Appendix 4 For DO (Dissolved Oxygen)

n

Dissolved oxygen

Dissolved oxygen means the oxygen dissolved in water.
Its concentration is expressed as the amount of oxygen per unit volume of water (mg/L or ppm).
The solubility of oxygen in water varies depending on water temperature, salinity, atmospheric

pressure, etc.

The sensors used in FLXA21 use the membrane electrode method to measure the dissolved

oxygen.
Two methods are available: galvanic cell method and polarographic method.

n

Compensation

There are three compensation methods for FLXA21: temperature compensation, salinity

compensation, and process pressure compensation.
Salinity and temperature compensations meet ISO 5814 (see Table 1).
There is no need to change the setting for normal usage.
Use the salinity compensation when measuring a solution containing salt (see Section 13.2.4).
For operation at high altitude, adjust the pressure value for the process pressure compensation

(see Section 13.2.5).
