II.8.5 Tmp. Offset
The DV1 Viscometer supports the use of an offset for the temperature measurement through the
DVP-94Y temperature probe. The Brookfield DVP-94Y temperature probe has an accuracy of +/-
1.0°C in the range of -100° to 149.9°C and +/-2.0°C in the range of 150° to 300°C. An offset may
be entered into the DV1 to adjust the temperature reading to be in agreement with a third party
measurement device. The offset can be set to any value between -5.0° to 5.0°C or -9.0° to 9.0°F.
TIP: The determination of a temperature offset requires the use of a third party calibrated
temperature probe. Be sure to allow for proper thermal equilibrium between the DVP-
94Y Brookfield probe and the third party probe.
The TMP. OFFSET screen in the Options Menu displays the current offset value. The factory setting
is 0.0°C. To change the TMP. Offset value, press the SELECT Hot Key and then use the Arrow Keys
to scroll to the required number. Press the SELECT Hot Key to accept the change. Press the BACK
or HOME Hot Key to cancel any change.
