2.6 Calibration of viscometer
2.6.1 Calibrating viscometer
● The calibration of viscometer is to determine the “coefficient” inherent in the
equipment.
● Calibrate the viscometer when installing equipment. Normally, calibrating it
once is enough. However, calibrate the viscometer again when changing the
type of ink, and also calibrate a new viscometer after replacement.
● Be sure to calibrate the viscometer when beginning to use new ink.
● Calibrating the viscometer can be done regardless of the ambient temperature.
1Turn on the power.
