Description

The FST100-DO202A dissolved oxygen sensor operates on the fluorescence quenching principle. A fluorescent substance on the sensor’s membrane head is excited by a light source, and the decay time of the emitted fluorescence is inversely proportional to the concentration of oxygen molecules present. This phase difference is measured, processed via an internal calibration curve, and compensated for temperature and salinity to output a precise digital value.

Engineered for demanding applications, its robust POM construction and IP68 protection allow for direct immersion or in-line installation via its 3/4″ NPT threaded port. The integrated RS485 interface ensures reliable, noise-immune communication over long distances, making it suitable for integration into modern industrial control and monitoring systems.

Key Features

  • Optical Fluorescence Sensing: No membranes, electrolytes, or consumables required; offers long-term stability and reduced maintenance.
  • High Accuracy & Resolution: Measures dissolved oxygen with ±2% FS accuracy and 0.01 mg/L resolution.
  • Full Environmental Compensation: Built-in Pt1000 temperature sensor and salinity compensation algorithms ensure readings are accurate under varying conditions.
  • Rugged Industrial Design: IP68-rated, submersible housing withstands pressures up to 0.2 MPa and temperatures from 0 to 45°C.
  • Convenient Connectivity: Features a factory-attached 5-meter cable for easy installation, with options for custom lengths.
  • Low Operational Cost: Consumes only 0.2W of power, enabling energy-efficient, 24/7 monitoring.
  • Versatile Mounting: Standard 3/4" NPT thread allows for submersion in tanks or insertion into pipeline sockets.

Applications

  • Continuous dissolved oxygen monitoring in wastewater treatment plants and aeration basins.
  • Aquaculture and fish farm water quality management to ensure optimal oxygen levels.
  • Industrial process control in pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and chemical production.
  • Environmental monitoring in lakes, rivers, and marine research applications.
  • Integration into SCADA systems for municipal water supply and distribution networks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the FST100-DO202A sensor?

The sensor requires a 12-24V DC power supply. It is designed for low power consumption, drawing only 0.2W at 12V, making it suitable for continuous operation in remote or solar-powered monitoring stations.

How do I communicate with this dissolved oxygen sensor?

The sensor provides a digital RS485 output using the Modbus RTU protocol. You can connect it directly to a PLC, data logger, or industrial gateway with an RS485 port. The standard 5-meter cable includes the power and communication lines for straightforward wiring.

Is the sensor suitable for submersion and high-pressure environments?

Yes. The FST100-DO202A features an IP68 waterproof rating and a POM housing, allowing for complete submersion. Its 3/4" NPT threaded port is rated for pressures up to 0.2 MPa, enabling installation directly into pressurized pipes or deep tanks.

Does this sensor require frequent calibration or maintenance?

As a fluorescence-based optical sensor, it does not use consumable membranes or electrolytes, significantly reducing maintenance. It features automatic temperature compensation via an internal Pt1000 sensor. Periodic verification against a reference standard is recommended for critical applications.
