Gravity Analog Dissolved Oxygen Kit - Datasheet
Operating principle
The Analog Gravity
™
class of meters offers the electrical engineer a low-cost solution to
traditionally expensive measurements. This device gives the engineer access to the
analog front end (AFE) of Atlas Scientifics Dissolved Oxygen sensing technology without
the added cost that comes with complex mathematical processing.
The Analog Gravity
™
Dissolved Oxygen meter has been specially designed to read the
voltage coming off a galvanic D.O. probe without damaging the probe; this is done
through a combination of high impedance reading and charging events. Where a voltage
is read from the probe, and then a voltage is sent to the probe. This back and forth
processes dramatically extends the life of the probe from a few months to a few years.
Dissolved oxygen is expressed in two ways:
1 Percent saturation (% Sat)
2 Milligrams per liter (mg/L)
Reading oxygen levels in mg/L requires very significant mathematical processing
and smoothing. Such complex readings can not be done with this device. The
Atlas Scientific Analog Gravity
™
Dissolved Oxygen Meter is designed to read
percent saturation only.
