beconguredforVACorVDCpowerinputwithananalog4-20mAconcentrationoutputanddigital
RS485 Modbus ASCII output meeting most general purpose oxygen analysis applications.
Southland Sensing Ltd. appreciates your business and recommends reading through the complete
manual to be able to get the full experience from your new oxygen analyzer.
1.2 Principle of Operation - The Oxygen Sensor
The precision electrochemical oxygen sensor used in the OMD-525X is designed and manufactured by
Southland Sensing Ltd. under a strict quality procedure.
To understand how the oxygen analyzer functions, it is important to understand a little bit of the sen-
sor characteristics.
The active components in the precision electrochemical oxygen sensor are the anode, cathode, and
aqueous electrolyte which are all housed in the cell body. The oxygen molecules in the application
pass through the front sensing membrane into the electrolyte, where a chemical reaction occurs and a
raw electrical current is generated.
This electrical current is proportional to the amount of oxygen in the application. The analyzer then
processes this raw electronic signal, compensates for temperature and barometric pressure variations,
and converts the data into a parts-per-million or percent oxygen measurement value.
The oxygen concentration reading is then displayed in real time on the full backlit display and the user
can automate the control of their process using the standard 4 - 20 mA concentration analog output
signal which can be run to a PLC or other type of DCS system.

3.3 Measurement Range Overview
TheOMD-525Xoxygenanalyzerallowstheusertoeldselect5availableranges-customrangescan
be programmed in the built-in menu, see Section 3.7. These ranges can be selected in manual mode,
meaning they are locked into that range by the user, or they can be set to auto-range so the analyzer
will adjust to give you the best full scale resolution.
When using the Manual-Range mode the Manual Range locks the 4 - 20mA output to a single range,
and the display will continue to operate in auto-range mode giving the user the full spectrum of
analysis ranges. Other manufactures lock the display as well - the problem is if you over-range and
the display is locked you have no idea what your oxygen value is. The OMD-525X solves this issue
with a display that auto-ranges and the ability to manually lock the analog outputs.
To select Auto-Range or Manual-Range Mode, from the HOME screen, press the MENU key and the
display will indicate:
Using the UP / DOWN keys to change which option is highlighted
will allow the user to select AUTO-RANGE, which will all the unit to
cyclethroughallveranges,orMANUALRANGEwhichwillallow

Decide which option will work best for your application.
Highlight the selection and press the ENTER key. If you
have selected the AUTO RANGE option, it will blink for a
second indicating this was selected. If you selected the
MANUAL RANGE option, the following screen will be brought up:

3.4 Analog Output
** Caution: Integral 4 - 20mA converters are internally powered and do not re-
quire external power. DO NOT supply any voltage across these terminals as the
4 - 20mA output will be damaged. It is also important to assure proper ground-
ing of the external recording device such as a PLC, DCS prior to connecting the 4
- 20mA.
The OMD-525X is equipped with a 4 - 20mA analog output. When physically connecting the analog
output, refer to the circuit board pinout in section 2.3
To verify the signal output of the 4 - 20mA circuit is working properly, connect an ammeter across the
(+) and (-) pins. With no oxygen sensor connected, it should read approximately 4 mA. If a sensor is
installed you can verify the signal matches with the following formula:
Signal Output (mA) = [(Reading / Full Scale Range) x 16] + 4
For example, if we are reading 500ppm on the 1000 ppm range:
Signal Output (mA) = [(500/1000) x 16] + 4
Signal Output (mA) = 12mA
The OMD-525X has a menu feature that allows the analog output to be adjusted to compensate for
any internal resistance in the connection. To adjust the 4 - 20mA enter the MENU and select SYSTEM,
then select OUTPUT CAL. Push the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the 4mA zero setting, continue to
push UP and DOWN as needed. Once complete, you will be promted to adjust the upper 20mA out-
put in the same fashion with the UP and DOWN bottons.

** Caution: RANGE ID converters are internally powered and do not require external power.
DO NOT supply any voltage across these terminals as the output will be damaged. It is also
important to assure proper grounding of the external recording device.
Refer to section 2.3 for electrical wiring diagram.
When connecting the RANGE ID, connect to the (+) positive and (-) negative sides of the RANGE
output on the rear of the analyzer. To verify the signal output of the RANGE ID is working properly,
connect a voltmeter across the terminals to verify. You can change the range manually in MANUAL
RANGE mode to verify:
PPMCong. PercentCong. Output
Range 1 0 - 10 ppm 0 - 1% 1 VDC
Range 2 0 - 100 ppm 0 - 5% 2 VDC
Range 3 0 - 1000 ppm 0 - 10% 3 VDC
Range 4 0 - 10000 ppm 0 - 25% 4 VDC
Range 5 0 - 25% 0 - 100% 5 VDC
