Introduction
The RINKO series is based on the optical (phosphorescence) principle which is now widely known as a remarkably fast response oxygen sensor with a high accuracy. As a new member of the RINKO family, the RINKO FT (model name: ARO-FT, AROD-FT) had overcome a well-known tradeoff between fast responsivity and stability of oxygen sensing foils. The RINKO FT not only retains the fast response time identical to that of conventional RINKO series but also has greater accuracy and stability by incorporating high-quality multipoint calibration and improved sensing method. The RINKO FT is primarily designed to target Argo float operations. However, its compact, lightweight, and commonly used communication protocol widen the choice of platforms for installation. The RINKO FT enables DO measurements with a high spatial resolution, which will contribute to the understanding of new aspects of physical/biochemical processes.
