Replacement Intervals

Unlike membrane sensors, optical sensors:

  • Do not have electrolyte to refill

  • Do not require membrane replacement

However, they may have:
Optical sensing cap (luminophore coating)

  • Lifetime: 1–2 years typical

  • Depends on:

    • Ozone concentration levels

    • UV exposure

    • Fouling

    • Temperature

  • Gradual signal weakening indicates aging

O-rings / seals

  • Replace during maintenance if worn

Calibration Interval

Optical dissolved ozone sensors (luminescent / fluorescence-based) drift much less than electrochemical or membrane types, but they still require periodic calibration.

Typical calibration frequency:

  • Every 3–6 months in clean water

  • Every 1–3 months in wastewater or dirty process water

  • Immediately after:

    • Harsh cleaning

    • Sensor storage

    • Suspected drift

    • Replacement of optical cap (if applicable)

Most systems support:

  • One-point calibration (against known ozone concentration)

  • Two-point calibration (zero + known standard)

Zero calibration is often done with ozone-free water (e.g., sodium sulfite treated).

Cleaning Interval

More important than calibration in many cases.

Cleaning frequency:

  • Clean water: every 1–3 months

  • Wastewater: every 2–4 weeks

  • Heavy fouling: as needed

Use:

  • Soft cloth

  • Mild acid cleaning (if scale)

  • Avoid abrasive materials (damages optical surface)
