Appendix I - DVE-50A Probe Clip
Probe Clip DVE-50A is supplied with the DV1 Optional Temperature Probe. It is used to attach the
RTD temperature probe to the LV/RV Guard Leg or 600mL low form Griffin beaker. Figure I-1 is a
view of the Probe Clip, showing the hole into which the RTD probe is inserted, and the slot which
fits onto the LV/RV guard leg. When inserting the RTD probe into the Probe Clip, the upper part
of the Clip is compressed by squeezing the points shown in Figure I-1.

Figure I-2 shows the Probe Clip (with RTD temperature probe installed) mounted on the guard leg.
Figure I-3 shows the Probe Clip mounted in a 600mL low form Griffin beaker. This mounting may
be used with LV, RV, HA and HB series instruments.
NOTE: The RTD probe must be parallel to the beaker wall so as not to interfere with the
viscosity measurement.
