The specific steps of the installation method of the Brookfield DVS+ Rotational Viscometer in the United States are as follows:
1. Assemble the Type A bracket according to Appendix G and insert the vertical rod into the base of the bracket on a clean, dry, vibration-free surface. The vertical pole gear and assembly jig should face towards the front of the base. Secure the straight rod to the bottom of the base with the retaining nut. Install the leveling screws on the base.
2. Insert the mounting rod behind the DVS+ head into the hole of the clamp assembly on the stand. Before tightening the clamp knob, adjust the center air bubble as horizontal as possible from left to right.
3. The viscometer needs to be level. Use the three level adjustment screws on the base to adjust the level so that the level bubble at the front of the handpiece is in the circle.
Note: When the instrument is in use, it is necessary to check whether the instrument is in a horizontal state from time to time.
4. Remove the protective cap from the rotor joint. The function of this protective cap is to protect the rotor connector from damage during transportation. Remember to take off the protective cap first when the instrument is in operation. Keep the protective cap for future use.
5. Connect the power cord to a power outlet and plug the power plug into a suitable power source. The power plug should be correctly inserted into the circular socket on the back of the viscometer. Refer to the figure below.
6. Optional accessories: Install the screen protector according to the instructions on the package.
Note: 1) AV-6 power supply is required, alternative power supply may damage the electronic components of the instrument.
