Thermo Scientific Orion Star A113 Dissolved Oxygen/Temperature Benchtop Meter

The Thermo Scientific
Orion Star A113 Dissolved Oxygen Meter is a benchtop dissolved oxygen (DO) and temperature meter with automatic temperature, manual salinity input, and manual barometric pressure compensation to ensure accuracy. The meter can be calibrated by the water-saturated air method or Winkler titration method. The LCD screen displays icons, messages, and information such as DO reading in mg/L or % saturation, temperature in °C or °F, meter mode, and battery life. The ready indicator shows when readings are stable, and the memory holds up to 50 data points. The meter takes an Orion polarographic DO probe (sold separately) and runs on AC power via the universal power adapter (included) or on four AA batteries (sold separately). The electrode arm with holder (included) helps to place and maintain probes in samples. The meter housing has Ingress Protection 54 (IP54) to withstand splashes and can be wall-mounted to save table space. Additional certifications include European Conformity (CE), Technical Inspection Association (TÜV), and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Class A limits. DO meters are commonly used in water-quality testing applications.

Specifications

Dissolved oxygen (DO) meters measure the amount of dissolved oxygen present in water. The amount of DO helps to determine, for example, drinking water quality, the health of lakes or streams, and aquatic organism sustainability. A probe, also called a sensor or electrode, is inserted into the sample to perform the measurement, and the results appear on the meter display. Applications include sewage and water treatment plants, pollution control, fish farms, and various types of manufacturing.

Thermo Fisher Scientific manufactures analytical instruments, laboratory equipment, consumables, and software under the Thermo Scientific, Fisher Scientific, and Nalgene brands, among others. The company is headquartered in Waltham, MA.
