RBR Rinko Oxygen Sensor Problem

(General description of the problem)

Updates from IOS

Our (IOS) RBR Concertos and Maestro using RINKO oxygen sensors where the logger has been setup to output %sat are using a fixed CTD temperature from the start of the CTD file in the calculation of volts to %sat instead of real-time CTD temperature.
In the Arctic where the temperature at startup could be 25C warmer than the water temperature, this can give you a reading of 60% saturation instead of 95%. The %saturation value is used to calculate concentration in ml/l so concentration values are low as well. Correct %sat can be calculated using Rinko voltage output, accessed by exporting data from the RSK file as Legacy > Raw txt. If data have been downloaded in ‘mobile’ mode, the downloaded *.RSK file no longer has the raw voltage information and recalculations are not possible.
