The OxyGuard Standard Probe – the probe that revolutionised oxygen monitoring.
The probe that you can purchase today is even better than the probe introduced in 1987 that helped revolutionize fish farming and make modern aquaculture the industry it is today.Today’s OxyGuard Standard Probe is hermetically sealed. If needed you can open it to replace the membrane and renovate it completely, but this should not be needed for many years.
The measurement stability of the OxyGuard Standard Probe is also very high indeed. A probe measuring in air will maintain accuracy even when subjected to a sudden 20 degree celcius temperature change. The sensitivity of a probe measuring in clean air at room temperature will remain the same for at least 3 years. This proves that the OxyGuard probe is not, like some other probes, affected by “ageing”.
OxyGuard believe that the OxyGuard Standard probe is more accurate, needs less attention and maintenance and has a lower total cost of ownership than any other oxygen or dissolved oxygen probe offered to the aquaculture industry today.
*Accessories are shipped with every OxyGuard probe. You will thus be able to change the membrane if you manage to damage it during installation. Otherwise the accessories can be enough for up to 5 years’ use.

The OxyGuard Commander probe is a membrane covered galvanic cell that generates an electrical signal proportional to the oxygen pressure it senses. The probe is designed for use in applications across the aquaculture industry and is capable of measuring oxygen in clean water, waste water, and air for ambient monitoring. It requires neither an applied voltage nor microprocessor controlled electronics in order to function.
Even in the most demanding aquaculture applications the OxyGuard Commander probe can keep its calibration for about a year and operate for three to five years before membrane replacement is needed.
OxyGuard temperature probes are robust, accurate and easy to use. They are filled with a special compound that protects against moisture. As standard the probes are fitted with 7 m cable, but they can be supplied with other lengths on request. The sensor in both types of probe consists of a stainless steel cylinder containing the thermistor or Pt100 element. This sensor tip is fitted to a black plastic housing. Standard types of housing are shown overleaf, but others can be supplied on request, e.g. to fit other pipe threads or fittings.
Marlin is a single-channel measurement transmitter instrument explicitly designed for use in aquaculture.
One of the critical advantages of Marlin is its water resistance, which means it can be used in various wet environments without fear of damage.
You can order Marlin with the probe of your choice to meet your specific needs:
Dissolved oxygen (electrochemical or optical)
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
pH/Redox
Total Gas Pressure (TGP)
Temperature
Salinity
Ozone
Any other probe with 4-20 mA input (e.g. Model 420)
Compatibility:
Marlin features a 4-20mA output and MODBUS/TCP for PLC/SCADA compatibility, making integrating your existing systems easy.
It is also Cobália compatible, ensuring seamless communication with the Cobália digital management system.
Whether running a commercial aquaculture operation or simply monitoring the water quality in your backyard pond, Marlin is the perfect tool!

OxyGuards new optical oxygen probe is developed in cooperation with world leading experts. Based on luminescence quenching of a sensor dye immobilized on a support foil it can be used for gas measurements as well as for dissolved oxygen (DO).
The presence of molecular oxygen quenches the luminescence, changing its intensity and lifetime fully reversibly. The measurement principle is very robust. It shows virtually no interference to other gases and has very low drift. Bleaching is not an issue because low energy red light excites the sensor spot and emission is NIR.
Special features
High-accuracy measurements of oxygen in gas or water (DO)
Low drift
Long lifetime
Fast response
Digital output of all major oxygen units

The OxyGuard Atlantic is an accurate, reliable and easy to use oxygen meter with features ideal for use in aquaculture facilities such as shrimp farms, carp farms and other installations with individual, large ponds.
It measures both dissolved oxygen and temperature, and has 4 relay outputs. The dissolved oxygen measurement is compensated for atmospheric pressure, which permits accurate control of aerators. The user can link setpoints to parameters as desired. Setpoints can then be linked to output relays. It is also possible to link setpoints together. This permits, for example, an aerator to be started both from a DO setpoint and a temperature set point.

The OxyGuard Handy pH is a hand-held, pocket size pH or Redox meter designed for use in demanding, wet environments. The meter itself and the electrode assembly are waterproof. This instrument does not suffer from the classical problems associated with pH meters – the Handy pH is sealed so that water cannot enter the top of the electrode or the electronics. You can drop it into the water without damaging it! In the Handy pH these advantages are combined with microprocessor technology to give an instrument that is exceptionally easy to use.

The Model 420 is a membrane covered galvanic oxygen probe with built-in two-wire 4-20 mA transmitter. The probe is connected to a DC supply and draws a current of between 4 and 20 mA corresponding to the oxygen concentration.There are only two wires to connect, and there is no limit to cable length. The output signal is galvanically isolated from the built-in electronics and the process fluid. Interference between the Model 420 and other equipment can never occur!

These OxyGuard probes consist of an electrode and an impedance converter inside a two part housing held together by a threaded collar. There is extra sealing so that the connections at the top of the electrode remain dry even when the probe is completely submersed. The impedance converter immediately over the electrode eliminates electrical noise problems and permits the use of ordinary cable to connect the probe. Either light duty or heavy duty OxyGuard pH or redox electrodes with flange fittings can be used.
There are three basic designs, one for free mounting, one with a 3/4″ tee for flow-through use, the third designed to be screwed into a pipe, flange or other suitable fixture. The probes can be ordered with a 1″ thread at the top of the top part for mounting purposes. OxyGuard also manufacture probes to customer specification, so please ask if you cannot use a standard design. As standard the probes have 7m cables.

The Handy Salinity is a hand-held instrument specially designed for aquaculture use. Factory calibration and automatic temperature compensation make it very easy to use. The display shows the salinity directly. Temperature is also measured and shown in the display.
The instrument incorporates automatic check functions to ensure reliability. The probe is designed to be as trouble-free as possible, with features specially suited for aquacultural use. Inductive technology is used so that you don’t have to worry about deposits on the surface of the probe – all you have to do is ensure that the hole in the probe is open and relatively clean.
