® This only applies to chillers having a Tracer AdaptiView™ controller. If the RTHD chiller has a CH530, it must be replaced with the Tracer AdaptiView RTHD rotary chiller display upgrade kit (RCDA; sold separately). The AFDR can be ordered as a close floor mount, remote floor mount, or remote wall mount.
