Brookfield Engineering Labs., Inc. Page 12 Manual No. M13-10000
Electrical Requirements
The BF35 Viscometer is to be powered by a DC power source capable of
providing between 13 and 16 volts DC. The equipment is current limited to 4
amps by a user-replaceable fuse. However, we suggest that the power supply
be current limited to less than 4 amps to provide additional protection to the
equipment.
Power (On/Off) Switch
Input Connector:
13 - 16 VDC Power
Inlet / Emergency
Disconnect Device
When connecting the equipment to your power source, make sure that the 13 - 16
VDC is connected to the center pin of the connector.
The equipment is supplied with a user-replaceable fuse. This fuse must only be
replaced by a 250-volt, 4-amp, time-delayed fuse.
Environment Conditions
The equipment is designed for use in normal environmental conditions:
- Indoors
- At or below an altitude of 2,000 m (6,562 ft)
-
In temperatures between 5˚ and 40˚C (41˚ - 104˚F)
-
With a maximum relative humidity of 80% for temperatures up to 31˚C
(88˚F) decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40˚C (104˚F)
- This equipment has not been rated according to IEC 60529
Installations
The BF35 Viscometer should be used in a location where it will not be subjected
to excessive moisture. It should be placed on a flat, stable surface in a well-
ventilated environment.
