DISSOLVED OXYGEN PROBE, 

continued

General Probe Operation

Follow the procedures presented in this section to obtain maximum 
performance and accuracy from your DO probe:

Use the DO probe only for aqueous applications.

Take extra care when handling and storing the oxygen membrane 
module cap.

Do not allow the DO probe’s sensing area (cap reservoir) to dry out.

Perform the calibration procedure at the beginning of each day for 
maximum performance. Recalibrate the DO probe every two hours 
for maximum accuracy.

The DO probe can be left out of solution for up to 24 hours without 
damage. If the DO probe is not being used for more than 24 hours, 
prevent electrolyte evaporation by storing it in the storage/calibration 
chamber. Refer to the meter instruction manual for more information on 
probe storage. 

Probe Polarization 

Note: Prior to 
operation, connect the 
probe to the meter. 
Allow the probe to 
stabilize for 30-50 
minutes before 
attempting 
a calibration.

Hach dissolved oxygen probes are continuously polarized when they 
are connected to the instrument. A steady reading will not be seen for 
30–50 minutes when the probe is new or when it has been unplugged 
for more than an hour. Interrupted connections of less than one hour 
will require 5–25 minutes before stabilizing. Refer to the sens

ion

6 

Dissolved Oxygen Meter Instruction Manual for additional information. 

Probe Calibration

Detailed instructions for calibrating the Dissolved Oxygen Probe using 
a Water-saturated Air or Winkler Titration method are presented in the 
sens

ion

6 Dissolved Oxygen Meter Instruction Manual. Perform a 

calibration procedure at the beginning of each day for best performance. 
Obtain maximum accuracy by recalibrating the probe every two hours.
