WARNING
Physical access
Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or misconfiguration of
end users’ equipment. This could be intentional or unintentional and needs to be protected against.

4 Calibrate
4.1 Zero point calibration
Even in the absence of oxygen, the Rosemount 499ATrDO sensor generates
a small signal called the zero current. Normally, the zero current is less than
5 nA, which introduces nor more than a 0.5 ppb error in measurement. Zero
the sensor when it is first placed in service and every time the fill solution is
changed.
To zero the sensor:
Procedure
1. Pour a cup of deionized or bottled water.
2. Add a teaspoon of sodium sulfite to the water.
3. Place the sensor in the water.
4. Wait until the sensor current has reached a stable low value (at least
two hours).
5. Measure the current.
a) If it is less than 5 nA, do not zero the sensor.
b) If it is between 5 and 10 nA, allow the sensor to run overnight.
Zero the sensor if the reading is still between 5 and 10 nA and
is stable.
c) If it is greater than 10 nA, call the factory.
Procedure
1. Pour a small amount of water into a cup.
2. Suspend the sensor, keeping the membrane dry, about 1/4 in. (6
mm) above the surface of the water.
3. Once readings are stable, which should take no longer than 20
minutes, follow the analyzer prompts to complete the calibration.
The analyzer automatically calculates the equilibrium solubility of
atmospheric oxygen in water under the prevailing temperature and
barometric pressure.
4. After calibration, go to the Diagnostics menu and check the
sensitivity.
The sensitivity should be between 3,600 and 6,100 nA/ppm.

5 Maintenance
Periodic maintenance and cleaning are required for best performance of the
sensor. Generally, the membrane and fill solution should be replaced every
four to six months. The optimum maintenance frequency is best determined
by experience. Periodically check the zero current and sensitivity. If the zero
current is less than about 5 nA, and the current in the air is between 30 and
45 nA with a variability of less than 2%, the sensor does not need
maintenance.
WARNING
PRESSURIZED SPRAY INJURY
Before removing the sensor, be absolutely certain that the process pressure
is reduced to 0 psig and the process temperature is lowered to a safe level!
Procedure
1. Unscrew the membrane retainer.
2. Remove the membrane assembly and O-ring.
See Figure 1-1.
3. Hold the sensor over a container with the cathode pointing down.
4. Remove the fill plug.
5. Allow the electrolyte solution to drain out.
6. Inspect the cathode.
a) If it is tarnished, clean it by gently rubbing in the direction of
the existing scratches (do not use a circular motion) with
400-600 grit silicon carbide finishing paper.
10. Hold the sensor at about a 45° angle with the cathode end pointing
up.
11. Add electrolyte solution through the fill hole until the liquid
overflows.
12. Tap the sensor near the threads to release trapped air bubbles.
13. Add more electrolyte solution if necessary.
14. Place the fill plug in the electrolyte port and begin screwing it in.
15. After several threads have engaged, rotate the sensor so that the
cathode is pointing up and continue tightening the fill plug.
Do not overtighten.
16. Place a new O-ring in the groove around the cathode post.
17. Cover the holes at the base of the cathode stem with several drops of
electrolyte solution.
18. Insert a small blunt probe, like a toothpick with the end cut off,
through the pressure equalizing port.
See Figure 1-1.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Do not use a sharp probe. It will puncture the bladder and destroy
the sensor.
19. Gently press the probe against the bladder several times to force
liquid through the holes at the base of the cathode stem. Keep
18 Emerson.com/Rosemount
May 2019 Quick Start Guide
pressing the bladder until no air bubbles can be seen leaving the
holes. Be sure the holes remain covered with electrolyte solution.
20. Place a drop of electrolyte solution on the cathode; then place the
membrane assembly over the cathode.
21. Screw the membrane retainer in place.
The sensor may require several hours operating at the polarizing
voltage to equilibrate after the electrolyte solution has been
replenished.
5.3 Storage
Store the sensor with the membrane immersed in a fresh solution of
saturated sodium sulfite. You can use the PVC cap shipped with the sensor.
Leave the power to the transmitter turned on.
