5. SENSOR CALIBRATION
5.1 Temperature Calibration
The AquaTrace system's temperature measurement can be recalibrated using a 1-point sample
calibration. Use the following procedure to calibrate the temperature measurement:
1. Enter the calibration menu on the AV38 Remote Display (see the AV38 user guide for detailed
2. Press the ENTER key from the TEMPERATURE calibration menu to initiate the calibration
3. Remove the Trace DO sensor from sample chamber.
4. Place the Trace DO sensor in a beaker filled with clean water at the desired calibration
5. Allow the sensor to stabilize in the calibration bath. The time required to stabilize will vary based
6. Use a known reference sensor to determine the actual temperature of the calibration bath.
7. When the sensor is ready, press the ENTER key is pressed and the user is presented with a

hold mode. The user is prompted to prepare the sensor. The sensor value is dynamically

do not vary significantly, the temperature measurement should stabilize within five minutes. If
the variation is significant it may take up to fifteen minutes for the temperature measurement to
stabilize sufficiently for an accurate calibration.
