5.4. To stop the viscometer during operation
In an emergency or if you need to stop the viscometer rapidly, turn off the green power switch
on the left side of the viscometer. Before switching the viscometer back on, wait at least 10
seconds. This allows retained power within the viscometer power supply to dissipate.
To stop the viscometer after samples have been processed, Benson Viscometers recommends
a stop flag is inserted into the black carriage after the last sample in that batch to be tested. The
system will perform a close down clean after it has read the stop flag barcode and will then stop.
Alternatively, c
lick on the button marked „Stop‟ on the control screen. The system will
acknowledge the stop request and the instrument will stop only after the next operation has
been completed
5.5. Powering off the equipment
If the viscometer has been stopped using the "Stop" button, a closedown clean will need to be
initiated by clicking the button on the main screen or within the maintenance menu.
It is recommended that the viscometer and pump are left powered on to maintain the viscometer
at a stable operating temperature, reducing the temperature fluctuations that arise as a result of
the unit being powered off and on. The system will then remain ready for immediate use
following the required maintenance.
All spare parts and consumables must be supplied directly from Benson Viscometers Ltd.
