SDL150-EU-EN-V2.1-11/11

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech SDL150 Dissolved Oxygen Meter, an SD Logger

Series meter. This meter displays and stores Dissolved Oxygen readings in the 0 to 20.0mg/L

range, Oxygen in air from 0 to 100%, and Temperature from 0 to 50

C (32 to 122

F). The SDL150

uses a polarographic oxygen probe that also measures temperature. %Salt and Altitude

compensation can be fine tuned by the user in the Setup mode. Logged data readings are stored on

an SD card for transfer to a PC. In addition, an RS232 port allows data streaming to a PC. This

meter is shipped fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable

service.

Measurements

Connect the Oxygen Probe

The supplied probe connects to the keyed input jack (DIN style) at the top of the meter.

Measurement Ranges

Dissolved Oxygen measurements are displayed in the range of 0 to 20mg/L in the upper, larger digit

display area of the meter’s LCD. Measurements outside of this range will yield dashes (- - -) on the

meter’s LCD. Oxygen in Air measurements (O2) are displayed in the range of 0 to 100%.

Temperature measurements are displayed in the range of 0 to 50

C (32 to 122

F) on the lower LCD

line in smaller sized digits.

Calibration Considerations

For best accuracy, calibrate the meter with the probe before each use. The calibration should at be

performed before first use and after long periods of non-use. The calibration procedure is provided

in a later section of this user guide.

SDL150-EU-EN-V2.1-11/11

Taking Dissolved Oxygen Measurements

1. Immerse the DO probe into the solution under test to a depth of at least 10cm. The depth

specification is important since the temperature measurement of the solution and the automatic

temperature compensation circuitry rely on the probe depth to operate correctly.

2. Allow the test to stabilize for several minutes to achieve thermal equilibrium between the probe

and measurement sample.

3. To successfully measure DO the velocity of the solution striking the probe must be at least 0.2-

0.3m/s (meters per second); if not, simply agitate the solution with the probe while waiting for

thermal equilibrium to be achieved.

4. In laboratory environments use of a magnetic agitator to ensure proper velocity is

recommended. In this way, errors due to the diffusion of the oxygen present in the surrounding

air are minimized.

5. The Dissolved Oxygen measurements are displayed on the upper, larger digit display area of

the meter’s LCD. Measurements outside of the specified range will yield dashes (- - -).

Temperature measurements are displayed in the range of 0 to 50

C (32 to 122

F) on the lower

LCD line in smaller sized digits.

6. %SALT, Altitude (height) compensation, temperature units of measure, and other parameters,

can be modified in the SETUP mode (refer to the SETUP mode section later in this guide).

Taking Oxygen in Air Measurements

1. The probe measures Oxygen in the air surrounding the probe (in percent).

2. The meter defaults to the DO measurement mode. Therefore, press and hold the FUNCTION

button for 1.5 seconds to switch to the %O2 mode (oxygen in air). The displayed unit of

measure will switch from mg/L to 02. To return to the DO measurement mode simply press and

hold the FUNCTION button again for 1.5 seconds.

3. The Oxygen in Air measurements are displayed on the upper, larger digit display area of the

meter’s LCD. Measurements outside of the specified range will yield dashes (- - -). Temperature

measurements are displayed in the range of 0 to 50

C (32 to 122

F) on the lower LCD line in

smaller sized digits.

Calibration

20.9% Oxygen in Air Calibration

1. Connect the DO probe to the input jack at the top of the meter

2. Power the meter by pressing and holding the power button for 1.5 seconds

3. Press and hold the FUNCTION button for 1.5 seconds to switch from mg/L mode to O2 mode

4. Allow the probe to stabilize for at least 5 minutes in a large well ventilated environment.

5. Press and hold the CAL button for 1.5 seconds. The CAL icon will appear

6. Momentarily press the ENTER button while the CAL icon is displayed. The display will indicate a

countdown from 30 to zero. Note that if the ENTER button is not pressed while the CAL icon is

being displayed, the calibration procedure must be attempted again

7. When the countdown finishes the calibration is complete

8. If the calibration is unstable, check the electrolyte level and/or replace the probe head (includes

diaphragm)

Zero Calibration

The 0% calibration is available for high accuracy measurements at low O

levels. The calibration

requires a Zero Oxygen Solution which can be purchased from most laboratory supply distributors.

This calibration is not required for typical O

measurements.

1. Power the meter on and set it to DO mode (you should see mg/L in the top right of display).

2. Immerse the probe in 4” of zero oxygen solution; agitate or slowly stir the probe in the solution

to remove any air bubbles and allow the reading to stabilize.

3. Once the reading has stabilized, press and hold the UP and DOWN arrow buttons until CAL 0

appears in the lower portion of the display.

4. Release the UP and DOWN arrow buttons; calibration is complete.

Probe Maintenance

First time use

Before first use, ensure that the probe is filled with the supplied electrolyte solution (refer to the

electrolyte filling instructions later in this guide)

Subsequent uses

1. Ensure proper electrolyte level in probe

2. Calibrate the probe with the meter before each use

3. Replace the probe head and diaphragm if the diaphragm appears soiled (re-calibrate after

replacing diaphragm)

Diaphragm considerations

The main oxygen probe component is the thin Teflon diaphragm housed in the tip of the supplied

probe. The diaphragm is made permeable by the oxygen molecules but not by the considerably

larger molecules contained in the electrolyte. Due to this characteristic, the oxygen may diffuse

throughout the electrolyte solution contained in the probe and its concentration is quantified by the

meter’s measurement circuitry.

Refilling the Probe’s Electrolyte

Refer to the illustrated instructions below.

1. Unscrew the probe head

2. Pour out the old electrolyte from the probe head container

3. Fill the probe head container with the fresh electrolyte

4. Replace the probe head onto the probe body

5. When not in use the probe head should be kept in the protective cover

Datalogging

Types of Data Recording

•Manual Datalogging: Manually log up to 99 readings onto an SD card via push-button press.

•Automatic Datalogging: Automatically log data onto an SD memory card where the number of

data points is virtually limited only by the card size. Readings are logged at a rate specified by

the user.

SD Card Information

•Insert an SD card (from 1G size up to 16G) into the SD card slot at the bottom of the meter. The

card must be inserted with the front of the card (label side) facing toward the rear of the meter.

•If the SD card is being used for the first time it is recommended that the card be formatted and

the logger’s clock set to allow for accurate date/time stamping during datalogging sessions.

Refer to the Setup Mode section for SD card formatting and time/date setting instructions.

•European and USA numerical formats differ. The data on the SD card can be formatted for

either format. The meter defaults to USA mode where a decimal point is used to separate units

from tenths, i.e. 20.00. The European format uses a comma, i.e. 20,00. To change this setting,
