ADS420

Optical dissolved oxygen sensor

Measurement made easy

Introduction

The ADS420 sensor is a rugged, reliable instrument 
designed to deliver accurate dissolved oxygen (DO) 
data across a wide measurement range, using the 
latest optical technology for DO measurement.

The probe is designed for use with ABB multi-input 
transmitters, such as the AWT420 and AWT440, 
which feature 'hot-plugging' capability.   
Hot-plugging lets new or replacement sensors to be 
connected without needing to power down the 
transmitter.  

When used in conjunction with the optional EZClean 
compressed air supply unit (connected to an ABB 
adapter nozzle or T-piece), a schedule can be 
configured to provide automatic in-situ cleaning of 
the sensor.
