Setup
Consistometer
1. Carefully remove the instrument from the wooden crate.
2. Once the unit is in place, lock the casters by depressing the lever on
the side. This will prevent the unit from moving.
3. Connect an air or nitrogen (100 - 150 PSI / 690 - 1,035 kPa) supply to
the air supply on the back of the instrument.
This unit uses ¼” NPT female connectors for all supply lines.
4. Connect the drain and coolant supply lines, also on the back of the unit.
5. Make sure all electrical switches are turned off and the unit is ground-
ed. Make the necessary electrical connections in accordance with local
codes.
6. To fill the oil reservoir, open the front cabinet door and remove the oil
reservoir cap. Using a funnel, pour approximately four liters (or until
full) of mineral oil into the reservoir. Replace the cap. Make sure the
seal is air tight. Use the sight glass on the side of the reservoir to
check the oil level.
