CUSTOM SPINDLES
The CAP Series Viscometer allows for the use of custom spindles. Please contact
BYK-Gardner’s Technical Sales Department for more information.
Custom spindles are calibrated using spindle entry codes 11-20. The calibration of a
custom spindle requires the entry of two parameters: SMC and SRC . The SMC and
SRC are required for proper calculation of viscosity.
The SMC and SRC must be entered after entering the spindle number (11-20) and
selecting
YES (1) for calibration. Follow the screen prompts.
Once SMC and SRC are entered, follow the procedure described above for spindles
01-10.
NOTE: SMC and SRC need to be entered only once for any spindle number 11-20.
The CAP Series Viscometer will store these values. SMC and SRC can be
overwritten by executing a spindle calibration.
