Introduction
About the RDOX Optical Dissolved Oxygen Probe
The RDOX Optical Dissolved Oxygen Probe is a rugged, reliable instrument designed to deliver accurate
dissolved oxygen (DO) data across a wide measurement range and to reduce maintenance costs. The probe
features the latest optical technology for DO measurement.
This kind of optical technology requires very few consumables:
• No membrane replacement
• No electrolyte
The RDO cap contains the optically sensitive material. Replace the RDO cap according to your site’s needs or
approximately once every 2 years.
The sensor operates with optical luminescence measurement technology described in Standard Method
4500-O and In-Situ Methods 1002-8-2009, 1003-8-2009, 1004-8-2009 (EPA approved).
When the probe initiates a reading, an LED emits blue light, which excites lumiphore molecules in the
sensing element. Excited lumiphore molecules emit red light, which is detected by a photodiode. Oxygen
molecules quench the excited lumiphore molecules and prevent the emission of red light—a process called
dynamic luminescence quenching. Determination of DO concentration by luminescence quenching has a
linear response over a range of concentrations.
Lumiphore molecules are excited by blue light and then emit red light, which is
detected by a photodiode. Optical electronics report DO concentration in mg/L.
Serial Numbers
The probe serial number is engraved on the side of the unit. The RDO cap serial number is programmed on
the memory chip inside the cap.

through cable gland cap.
Identify brown and white
cables. Cut these unused
wires close to their base.
Ensure monitor is
isolated. Remove cover.
Unscrew cable gland cap.
Isolate the monitor from power before moving forward. There is a risk of electrical shock if you
do not isolate the monitor before installing wires.
