VisiWater DO P Arc 150 FC10 Details

The VisiWater DO P Arc 150 FC10 optical dissolved oxygen (DO) sensor is specifically designed for continuous environmental monitoring of water in applications such as water and wastewater treatment, fish farming, lakes, and rivers. Building on Hamilton's proven optical DO sensor technology, VisiWater delivers reliable dissolved oxygen measurements while providing low-maintenance operation and robust performance in submerged installations.

The sensor features a rugged design with a 10 m fixed cable and an IP68 protection rating for continuous submersion. Optical measurement technology integrates high-performance optoelectronics with fast response times and self-diagnostics, eliminating the need for polarization and significantly reducing maintenance requirements compared to conventional amperometric dissolved oxygen sensors. The replaceable optical ODO Cap further simplifies maintenance and sensor servicing.

The VisiWater DO P Arc 150 FC10 product family is available with either a stainless steel shaft or a plastic shaft to suit different application requirements. The sensors support both Modbus and 4–20 mA communication, enabling seamless integration into a wide range of process control systems. Configuration and calibration can be performed using a process control system (PCS) or ArcAir software together with a USB RS485 Modbus Converter.

Combining robust construction, advanced optical sensing technology, and low-maintenance operation, VisiWater provides a dependable solution for long-term dissolved oxygen monitoring in demanding environmental water applications.

Arc Sensors - Signal Averaging

Certain applications may introduce conditions that create fluctuating or "noisy" measurements. The noisy measurement can make process control challenging. One way to improve signal stability is to adjust the moving average setting using ArcAir software.

FAQ

Does salinity impact my DO measurement?

Yes, salinity of a solution generally has an inverse relationship to the dissolved oxygen content within the solution. Arc sensors can have the salinity value of the liquid added in to correct the measurement by using ArcAir.

FAQ

Does atmospheric pressure impact my gas phase oxygen measurement?

Yes, atmospheric pressure directly impacts the partial pressure of oxygen in the measured air and is linearly proportional to the measured oxygen content.
