WARNING WARNING
These procedures must be carried out by a trained Dispose of the old components in accordance with the
technician. guidelines contained in the Operating instructions
(OI/ADS550-EN).
ELECTRICAL

• Isolate all high voltage supplies to the transmitter before

performing replacement procedures.

• The wet-section is vulnerable to electrostatic damage.

5 Dissolved oxygen sensor
Wear an anti-static strap or dismantle the wet-section on assembly location
an anti-static workbench.

• Ensure all electrical connections are kept dry at all times.

GENERAL

• Shut off the external sample supply to the wet-section

and drain the flowcell – refer to the wet-section Operating
instructions (OI/ADS550-EN) for flowcell drainage
options.

• When a procedure is complete, restore power to the

transmitter and sample to the wet-section at the correct
flow rate.

• If necessary, calibrate the wet-section – refer to the wet-

section Operating Instructions (OI/ADS550-EN) for
calibration instructions.

• Perform general cleaning of the wet-section using a damp

cloth only – mild detergent can be used as a cleaning aid.
Do not use Acetone or any organic solvents.

• Dispose of the old components in accordance with the

guidelines contained in the Operating instructions
(OI/ADS550-EN). Sensor contained
within flowcell

6 Replacing the dissolved

oxygen sensor
Part number: low level dissolved oxygen sensor assembly
(AW502 080)

Removing the dissolved oxygen sensor

assembly
Referring to Figure 2:
1 Disconnect (red) sensor connector A.

2 Unscrew clamping screw B and withdraw the sensor

assembly from flowcell body C.

3 Carefully unscrew connector nut G from sensor D and

withdraw connector body E.

4 Remove and discard O-rings F and H.

• Only install the sensor immediately prior to use. The clarity.
sensor has a limited shelf life and, ideally, should NOT be
stored longer than 6 months. Store under cool conditions.

• Take special care to line up the two pins in the sensor with
their respective sockets before making the connection
O-ring 7/8 in ID
and tightening.

• Take care not to damage the delicate membrane on the O-ring 3/4 in ID
face of the sensor.

• Ensure that the mating surfaces (carrying the electrical

connection) of the sensor and connector body are clean
and completely dry.

• Do not overtighten the clamping screw.

1 Remove the top from the new sensor container.

2 Unscrew the protective cap from the rear of the sensor.

Referring to Figure 3:
3 Fit the smaller of the 2 new O-rings A (3/4 in. ID) onto the
connector body B.

4 Locate sensor C onto connector body B, ensuring the pins

and sockets are engaged correctly and tighten connector Optional flowmeter (if fitted)
nut D onto sensor C.

5 Insert the complete assembly into flowcell E, ensuring the

larger of the 2 new O-rings F (7/8 in. ID) is fitted.

6 Screw in clamping screw G using finger-pressure only to

secure the dissolved oxygen sensor assembly in the flowcell
body.

7 Push (red) sensor connector H onto sensor connector block I

firmly and tighten ONE TURN clockwise.
