Instructions: (for the service taker)
The researcher must ensure that 2000 µL of sample is to be addedto the sample cup for CPA41Z spindle and 500 µL of the sample for CPA51Z spindle.
For highly viscous samples smaller spindle is used and for the less viscous ones the larger spindle is used.
Readings below 10% torque must not be considered as they are inaccurate. In this case change either the spindle or speed to achieve maximum accuracy.
The user should ensure that the substances placed under test do not release poisonous, toxic or flammable gases at the temperatures which they are subjected to during the testing.
Spindles are made of stainless steel. Clean with non-abrasive cloth and solvent appropriate for sample material.
