Setting Up the Concentric Cylinder System
The concentric cylinder system consists of a water jacket, an inner cylinder (the cup) and a rotor (or bob).
To set up the concentric cylinder system, follow these
steps:
1. Raise the rheometer head to the top most position.
2. Press the 'Release button' on the control panel as
seen in Figure 5.9. A continuous green light indicates
that the attachment can be fitted.
NOTE: The release state will only stay
active for 10 seconds.
Le dévérouillage restera actif pendant 10

3. Fit the cylinder attachment, ensuring it is aligned
correctly.
4. Connect the power and fluid cables as shown in
Figure 5.11 to the right.
5. When the green status light goes out, the lower
cup is correctly installed.
6. Lift the rheometer head and attach the correct
rotor (bob) to the air bearing.
