SEAGUARD® Dissolved Oxygen O2
The SEAGUARD® O2 may be used as a multi-parameter instrument in the sea and in freshwater.
Since oxygen is involved in most of the biological and chemical processes in aquatic environments, it is the single most important parameter needed to be measured.
Oxygen can also be used as a tracer in oceanographic studies.
For environmental reasons it is critical to monitor oxygen in areas where the supply of oxygen is limited compared to demand e.g.
- In shallow coastal areas with significant algae blooms.
- In fjords or other areas with limited exchange of water.
- Around fish farms.
- In areas interesting for dumping of mine or dredging waste.
SEAGUARD® O2 lifetime-based luminescence quenching principle offers the following advantages over electro-chemical sensors:
- Not stirring sensitive (it consumes no oxygen).
- Less affected by fouling.
- Measures absolute oxygen concentrations without repeated calibrations.
- Better long-term stability.
- Less affected by pressure.
- Pressure behavior is predictable.
- Faster response time.
The SEAGUARD® O2 can be used with AADI Real-Time Collector for real-time data.
