The OPTOD Plastic Sensor from Aqualabo is a high‑precision dissolved oxygen (DO) sensor that employs luminescent optical technology for accurate and stable real‑time monitoring. Unlike traditional DO probes that rely on membranes and electrolytes, the OPTOD Plastic version uses optical sensing — meaning no membrane consumables and reduced drift over time. This results in lower maintenance and reliable outputs for prolonged monitoring programs.
Designed with a robust POMC and PVC housing, the sensor is suitable for diverse aquatic environments, including aquaculture, wastewater treatment, environmental surface water monitoring, and fish farming applications. It features digital communication via Modbus RS‑485 (and optionally SDI‑12) for seamless integration with dataloggers, SCADA systems, and automated monitoring platforms.
The OPTOD Plastic Sensor is a cost‑effective alternative within Aqualabo’s dissolved oxygen range, offering low energy consumption, waterproof protection, and configurable strainers to adapt to various field conditions.
