Brookfield RVDV-II+Pro - II.7 Temperature Display

Brookeld Engineering Labs., Inc. Page 18 Manual No. M/03-165-D0410
Figure II-16 is an example of the printed output of each of the above conditions.
Normal Operation:
RPM=50 M=RV S=29 %=51.4 cP=10280 D/CM2=1285 1/SEC=12.3 T=20.1C Z00:30
Over-Range Operation (>100% torque) (see Fig. 15):
RPM=50 M=RV S=29 %=EEEE cP=EEEE D/CM2=EEEE 1/SEC=12.3 T=20.1C Z00:30
Under-Range Operation (<10% torque) (see Fig. 16):
?RPM=50 M=RV S=29 %=5.2 cP=1040 D/CM2=130 1/SEC=12.3 T=20.1C Z00:30
Negative Torque Operation (see Fig. 17):
RPM=50 M=RV S=29 %=-0.1 cP=---- D/CM2=---- 1/SEC=12.3 T=20.1C Z00:30
M = Torque Range T = Temperature Z = Time

II.7 Temperature Display
The DV-II+Pro displays the temperature measured by its RTD temperature probe. Temperature
may be displayed in either ˚C (Centigrade) or ˚F (Fahrenheit) units, depending upon selection from
the Options menu. As received, the default temperature display will be in ˚C (Centigrade) units as
shown in the Figure II-17:
CP 123.4 20.1C
10 RPM % 19.7
Figure II-17
If you turn on the DV-II+Pro with the temperature probe disconnected, or remove the temperature
probe at any point after power-up, the display will indicate “- - - -C”. The four “dashes” indicate
the absence of the probe. If you were displaying temperature in Fahrenheit units the C would be
replaced by an F. Accuracy of temperature measurement for the DV-II+Pro is shown in Table 1.
