I.2 Options
I.2.1 Air Purge
The air purge option, Part No. KU-2A (Figure 2),
allowstheinterioroftheKU-2tobepressurizedwith
air(oraninertgas)whentheinstrumentistobeused
inahazardousenvironment.Abuilt-inpressureswitch
turnstheinstrumentoffwhenthepressuredropsbelow
2.0PSI(falling).Theswitchcomesonat10.0PSI
(rising).
 Connectaregulated clean air (or inert gas) supply
whichisnon-corrosivetobrasstothettingshown
inFigure2.Adjustthepressuretoapproximately25
PSI.
Note: Thepressureswitchrangeis0-40PSI.
DO NOT CONNECT PRESSURE HIGHER THAN
40 PSI TO THE SWITCH!
I.2.2 Optional Paste Spindle
 Thepastespindle,PartNo.KU1-75Y(Figure3),isaspecialspindle;
itisnotincludedinastandardshipment/order.Thedesignconsistsof
offsetrod-typevanes,approximately2mm diameter x 19 mm long.
Thisspindleissuitableforusewithhighconsistencymaterialssuchas
rollermillpastes.Do not use this spindle to report normal Krebs Unit
measurements or centipoise. Recordthegramsvalueshowninthedigital
displayandnotethatthepastespindlewasusedtomaketheviscosity
measurement.
