Appendix J - DVE-50A Probe Clip
Probe Clip DVE-50A is supplied with all model DV2T Viscometers, DV-III Rheometers,
and Digital Temperature Indicators. It is used to attach the RTD temperature probe to
the LV Guard Leg (Part No. B-20Y) or 600 mL low form Griffin beaker. Figure J-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 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 J-1.
Note
: All Viscometer/Rheometer models — except LV — use the
Probe Clip as shown in Figure J-3.
