APPENDIX H - DVE-50 Probe Clip
Probe Clip DVE-50 is supplied with all model 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 H1 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 squeez-
ing the points shown in Figure H1.
Note: The Probe Clip is not used with the RV guard leg, Part No. B-21Y.
Figure H2 shows the Probe Clip (with RTD temperature probe installed) mounted on the LV
guard leg.
Figure H3 shows the Probe Clip mounted in a 600 ml 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 viscos-
ity measurement.
