Shut Down the Instrument
At the conclusion of testing, follow the shutdown procedure below to prevent damage to TE-BBR
components.
1. Remove any beams from the supports and heat the bath to +5 °C.
2. Raise the Load Frame shaft and place the gage block on the left side of the load platform. Lower
the shaft so that the adjustment screw rests on the top surface of the gage block.
3. Turn off (by rotating counter-clockwise) the LINE regulator on the front panel to remove
pressure from the system.
Caution: The LINE regulator must be turned off before any external supply valve
is turned off to prevent the shaft from shooting upward.
4. Seal the bath with the bath cover to minimize evaporation of bath liquid.
5. Turn off the Control Unit power switch and air compressor or other gas supply.
