Q45D Portable Dissolved Oxygen  

Part 5 

– Operation

 

 

 
4.3 

Battery Power Circuit Board 

 

The Q45 portable instrument is primarily operated by software settings.  However, there are also 
a few hardware details on the battery circuit board to note. 

 

 

 

 

  The battery board is a circuit board that sits in the rear of the Q45 enclosure, and connects to the 

Q45 AUX port through a ribbon cable.  The battery board contains the battery clip for the two AA 
batteries  and  the  output terminal  strip  for  the  two  0-2.5 VDC  outputs.    Along  the  left  side  below 
the  ribbon  cable  is  an  ON/OFF  slide  switch.    This  switch  can  be  used  to  turn  the  instrument 
completely OFF when not intending to use the unit for an extended period.  

 

4.4 

Voltage Outputs 

 

 

 

 

  There  are  two  sets  of  analog  voltage  outputs  on  the  battery  board  that  may  be  used  to  send 

isolated data back to remotely l

ocated recorders, PLC’s, etc. Output #1 is used only for dissolved 

oxygen  information,  and  Output  #2  can  be  used  for  an  additional  dissolved  oxygen  output 
channel, or it can be selected to output temperature information.
