3.0INSTALLATION

3.1Location

3.1.1Locate the instrument within the reach of the cable provided for the DOE-601 sensor.

3.1.2Select an installation site which is:

free of mechanical vibrations

reasonably clean and dry

protected from falling corrosive fluids within the ambient temperature and humidity specifications

remote from high voltage relay and power switches

3.2Type of Mounting

3.2.1If the instrument is to be pipe or panel mounted a special hardware kit will be required. For panel mount order part number DOCN600-PM. For pipe mount order part number DOCN600-PIPE. Instructions for both types of mounting will be included with the kits.

3.2.2For surface mounting, four feet brackets, together with fastening screws, are provided with the instrument. These should be fastened to the back of the instrument and then it may be screwed or bolted in the selected location.

3.3Conduit Connections

3.3.1Four 1/2" conduit holes are provided in the bottom of the enclosure. One of these is fitted with an approved water tight plug. To maintain NEMA 4 integrity, approved conduit hubs must be used to connect conduit. The hubs must be connected to the conduit before being connected to the enclosure. Any unused conduit holes must be closed with water tight plugs or connectors.

3.3.2For convenience of internal connections the right conduit hole (viewed from the front) should be used for power connection; the next hole to the left for relay outputs; the next hole to the left for analog outputs and finally the fourth hole for sensor input.

3.4Electrical Connections

CAUTION: The instrument operates from line voltage. This constitutes a possible shock hazard. Ensure that line power is removed before attempting connections. Note: A separate source of line power may have been connected to the floating relay contacts.

3.4.1To access the terminal strips open the door of the instrument and then unscrew the captive retaining screw near the upper right hand corner of the panel. Now swing open the panel to reveal the terminal strip on the power supply circuit board and the smaller terminal strip on the back of the swing-out board.

DOCN600, Dissolved Oxygen System specifications

Omega Engineering has set a standard in the field of environmental testing and monitoring with its advanced Dissolved Oxygen System, the DOCN600. This sophisticated device is engineered for precision and reliability, making it a preferred choice for various applications, from wastewater treatment to aquaculture, and laboratory settings. The DOCN600's primary mission is to accurately measure dissolved oxygen levels, a critical parameter in assessing water quality and supporting aquatic life.

One of the standout features of the DOCN600 is its state-of-the-art optical dissolved oxygen sensor technology. Unlike traditional Clark-style electrochemical sensors, which can be subject to interference and require frequent calibration, the optical method uses luminescence to measure oxygen levels. This technology offers several advantages, including lower maintenance requirements, enhanced stability, and improved accuracy over a broad range of conditions.

The DOCN600 boasts a user-friendly interface, complete with a high-resolution LCD display that provides real-time data visualization. Users can access multiple display modes, allowing for quick reference of key metrics, including temperature and oxygen saturation levels. Furthermore, the system is designed with intuitive menus that facilitate easy navigation, ensuring that both seasoned professionals and beginners can operate the device with confidence.

For data management, the DOCN600 is equipped with advanced connectivity options, including USB and RS-232 ports. This allows for seamless integration with external devices and enables users to export data for further analysis. Coupled with its internal memory, which can store extensive historical data, this system empowers users to monitor trends over time, aiding in decision-making processes.

Another notable characteristic of the DOCN600 is its robust build quality, ideal for deployment in various environmental conditions. The system is engineered to be resistant to water, dust, and harsh chemicals, ensuring longevity and reliable performance even in challenging environments. Additionally, with its compact and portable design, it can be conveniently used in field applications as well as in stationary setups.

In summary, the Omega Engineering DOCN600 Dissolved Oxygen System combines cutting-edge optical technology, user-friendly features, advanced connectivity, and a durable design. It stands out as an invaluable tool for anyone needing precise and reliable dissolved oxygen measurements. Whether used in research, environmental monitoring, or industrial applications, the DOCN600 is an excellent investment for achieving accurate water quality assessments.
