KFDO310 Online Fluorescence Dissolved Oxygen Sensor with No Electrolytes No Polarization and No Oxygen Consumption

KFDO310 integrated on-line fluorescence dissolved oxygen sensor is designed and made based on the quenching principle of excited fluorescence of specific substances in physics. The blue light from the light-emitting diode illuminates the fluorescent material on the inner surface of the fluorescent cap. The fluorescent material on the inner surface is excited and emits red light. By detecting the phase difference between the red light and the blue light, and comparing it with the internal calibration value, the concentration of oxygen molecule can be calculated, and the final value can be output by temperature automatic compensation.

• No electrolytes, no polarization
• No need to consume oxygen, not affected by the flow rate
• Built-in temperature sensor, automatic temperature compensation
• Free from chemicals like sulfides
• Small drift, fast response, more accurate measurement
• Maintenance-free, long service life, lower use cost
• Fluorescent caps are easy to replace
• RS-485 interface, Modbus-RTU protocol

The temperature sensing part should be immersed below the liquid surface to avoid collision with the film head surface. The head part of the membrane should be free from sediment.

Not all water depths reach 100% air saturation
In a stable body of water with no stratification, dissolved oxygen will remain at 100% air saturation. 100% air saturation means that the water is holding as many dissolved gas molecules as it can in equilibrium. At equilibrium, the percentage of each gas in the water would be equivalent to the percentage of that gas in the atmosphere – i.e. its partial pressure . The water will slowly absorb oxygen and other gasses from the atmosphere until it reaches equilibrium at complete saturation 10. This process is sped up by wind-driven waves and other sources of aeration .
In deeper waters, DO can remain below 100% due to the respiration of aquatic organisms and microbial decomposition. These deeper levels of water often do not reach 100% air saturation equilibrium because they are not shallow enough to be affected by the waves and photosynthesis at the surface. This water is below an invisible boundary called the thermocline (the depth at which water temperature begins to decline).
