Operation
Loading the Test Cell
Before attempting to load the test cell, ensure that the “Air To Cylinder” and
“Pressure Release” valves are completely closed (turned clockwise). Also,
make sure the “Motor”, “Pump”, and “Heat” switches are turned off.
1. Lower the slurry cup into the test cell ensuring that the slurry cup drive
pins engage the drive holes at the bottom of the test cell.
It may be necessary to start the motor briefly to confirm that the slurry cup
is properly aligned inside the test cell.
2. Lower the potentiometer mechanism into the test cell ensuring that the
contact springs of the potentiometer are in alignment with the test cell
contacts.
The slurry cup and potentiometer both have two holes near the top for
the lift bail (provided). Use the lift bail to easily lower the slurry cup and
potentiometer into the test cell.
