Thank you for purchasing General Tools & Instruments’ DOM5512SD Dissolved Oxygen

Meter with Datalogging SD Card. Please read this user’s manual carefully and thoroughly before using the instrument. Many commercial and industrial processes carefully monitor the concentration of oxygen contained in water because dissolved oxygen (DO) level is an excellent indicator of water quality. For example, if the DO level of a body of water remains too ...

• Uses heavy-duty polargraphic oxygen probe

• Precisely measures DO from 0 to 20 mg/L, as well as liquid temperature • Easy to calibrate • Supports automatic and manual datalogging • Time-stamps and stores measurements on SD memory cards • Sampling time settable from 1 second to 9 hours • Automatically compensates for altitude and salt content of liquids • 1.5 x 2.0 in. backlit liquid-crystal display • Powered by six “AA” ...

1. Choose the power source. Before using the DOM5512SD, be sure it is powered by

fresh batteries or an optional 9VDC AC adapter plugged into the bottom jack on its right side (callout 1-14). To remove the battery compartment cover, remove the two screws holding it in place (callout 1-11). Then install six “AA” batteries in the correct orientation, using the polarity marks on the inside of the compartment as a guide. Replace the cover by replacing ...

L button to navigate to the current month and press the REC/ENTER button to store

the setting. When the next screen flashes the value above “dd”, again use the M or L button to navigate to the current day and press the REC/ENTER button to store the setting. Once you have set the date, the display will prompt you to set the hour, minute and second of the current time. Again use the M or L buttons to navigate to the correct values, and the REC/ENTER butt ...

11. Compensate DO measurements for altitude in meters. Once DO measurements

have been compensated for salt, the term “High-” will appear in the lower portion of the display. Press the L or M button repeatedly until the reading on the upper portion of the display matches your altitude in meters. Then press the REC/ENTER button to store this value as the temporary default. 12. Compensate DO measurements for altitude in feet. Once DO measurements have bee ...

3-1 – Probe plug 3-2 – Probe handle 3-3 – Temperature-sensing metal 3-4 – Probe head 3-5 – Probe head protective cover 3. Plug the probe plug into the DO probe socket at the top of the DOM5512SD. 4. Power on the instrument by pressing the POWER button on the front panel once. (Powering the unit through a 9V AC/DC adapter—an optional accessory—disables the POWER button.) 5. Press the M button (which ...

• Wait a few minutes for the instrument to automatically compensate for any

difference in temperature between the probe and the liquid. • Read the DO content of the liquid in mg/L on the upper display and its temperature on the lower display. • Rinse the probe head with tap water after each measurement. • Replace the probe head protective cover. A DO measurement tip Agitating the liquid reduces the effect and measurement errors caused by oxygen dif ...

AUTOMATIC VS. MANUAL DATALOGGING

The DOM5512SD can automatically log data at a user-selected sampling period from 1 second to 9 hours. To view the sampling time for which the instrument was set up, press the LOGGER SET button (which has the words “Sampling check” stenciled below it) once. To change the sampling time, perform Step 5 of the setup procedure. 1. To start automatic datalogging, press the REC/ENTER button once. The top line of the display wi ...

TRANSFERRING DATA FROM THE SD CARD TO A COMPUTER

After automatic or manual datalogging of measurements, remove the SD card from the DOM5512SD and plug it into your computer either directly (if it has an SD card slot) or through an SD card reader. Because the files containing time-stamped data logs have the extension .xls, they open in Microsoft’s Excel application. Figures 4, 5 and 6 show three kinds of Excel presentations: a data-only screen, a graphics ...
