Measurements
The DataStick sensor heads are interchangeable with any sensor body and retain calibration. This makes it possible to convert sensor
features in the field without the need to recalibrate or reconfigure. When calibration is needed, the DataStick architecture provides
a number of options. The sensor can be calibrated locally with a smart junction box, it can be calibrated remotely by the computer it is
connected to, or it can be exchanged for a new calibrated sensor head of the same type or a different type. Exchanged sensor heads
can then be calibrated in the controlled environment of the lab. Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a wide range of measurements and the
system architecture makes it possible to develop new measurement types on request and make them compatible with installed systems.
The sensor head (transducer) is keyed and plugs into the end of the DataStick marked “Transducer Module”. Insert the sensor head until
it bottoms out. Rotate the adapter until it engages with the connector. Push in gently and then tighten the retaining ring with a 15/16-inch
wrench. Sensor heads can be inserted into the “Communications Adapter” end of the DataStick but will be too long for the retaining ring
to engage.
Pre-calibrated sensor heads include differential pH and ORP, two electrode conductivity, two electrode resistivity, toroidal conductivity,
dissolved oxygen and ozone. Additional sensor types include turbidity, chlorine and others. Just plug them in and tighten the retaining ring.
Sensor heads are available in different materials and with different electrode profiles.
