The role of the fluorescence dissolved oxygen sensor in aquaculture:
- Nutrient-rich feed and a good breeding environment are very important in aquaculture. Of course, dissolved oxygen is also the key to the survival of fish. During the breeding process, the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water is high, and the water quality and environment will become fertile and vitality, higher feed utilization, increased fish food intake, and fatter growth.
- The function of Fluorescence dissolved oxygen sensor is to measure the oxygen content in the water. The oxygen in the water will change with the pressure, temperature and salinity. The higher the pressure, the higher the dissolved oxygen, and the higher the temperature, the higher the salt. Generally, the oxygen in the water is air Infiltration into the water, it can also generate oxygen through the plants in the water, but many reasons in the water will consume oxygen, resulting in insufficient oxygen content in the water, so professional instruments are required to detect the dissolved oxygen content in the water.
- On the contrary, the dissolved oxygen in the water is low, the food intake of the fish and the utilization rate of the feed will decrease. At present, aquaculture is generally manually controlled by manual aerators, which can effectively solve the problem of aeration in water, but it is still inaccurate. The measured dissolved oxygen content will lead to the occurrence of hypoxia, which will cause great damage to aquaculture.
- It can intelligently control the aerator. When the oxygen content is low during the breeding process, it can automatically control the oxygen machine to increase the oxygen. When it reaches a certain oxygen content, it will automatically disconnect. It brings a lot of convenience in breeding and reduces the Labour and increases aquaculture production.
