Setup
Eurotherm
The Eurotherm Model 3504 controls the temperature and displays the
pressure. When running a test with the computer, the software automatically
programs the controller. However, when running a test without the computer,
the controller must be programmed manually. It is strongly recommended
that operators carefully study the Model 3504 instruction manual before
attempting to program the controller.
When running a test without the computer, always build the program prior to
mixing the slurry and loading the slurry cup.
The Eurotherm 3504 can store up to eight custom programs. Each program
consists of multiple segments. In a segment, the temperature setpoint can be
changed or held for a certain amount of time.
Each program also can consist of two channels; one for temperature and one
for pressure. Since the Benchtop Consistometer does not offer automatic
pressure control, only Channel 1 should be programmed.
