General System Installation Instructions:
1. Connect the sample chamber outlet to a vented drain.
2. Connect the process supply to the sample chamber inlet. The sample supply flow rate must be
3. Connect the appropriate power to the AV38 Remote Display. Route the power line through the
4. The Trace DO sensor is supplied with the sensor cable connected to the AV38 Remote Display.
5. Unscrew the sample chamber retaining ring and remove the Trace DO sensor.
6. Carefully remove the protective cap from the sensor head. Refer to Section 4.1 of this user
7. Insert the sensor back into the sample chamber and tighten the retaining ring.
8. Open process flow to the sample chamber. Observe the chamber and verify that it purges any
9. Power up the AV38 Remote Display.
10. The AV38 Remote Display includes optional host communications, relays and analog outputs
3.2 Wiring
A DataStick sensor can be configured to operate using one of several standard communications
protocols. A label at the end of the sensor cable identifies the specific communication protocol used by
that sensor. The sensor supplied with the AquaTrace DO system uses the MODBUS RTU protocol
enabling it to communicate with the AV38 Remote Display.
There are two different methods to make the electrical connection between the Trace DO sensor and
the AV38 Remote Display. The sensor can be wired directly to the Remote Display. In cases where the
AV38 Remote Display is mounted more than 30 feet from the AquaTrace panel, the sensor can be
connected using an interconnect cable and a junction box. The system is supplied with the sensor
directly wired to the Remote Display.
Direct Connection:
1. Insert the sensor cable through a watertight cord grip into the AV38 Remote Display. Conduit
2. Connect the sensor wires to the AV38 as shown on the AV38 wiring chart.
Indirect Connection (using extension cable and a junction box):
1. Insert the sensor cable and interconnect cable through watertight cord grips into the junction
