Using the ↓ or ↑ key, set the CAL VERIFY setting to YES, then press the Enter key. Figure
C-3 appears on the rheometer display. Ensure the rheometer is level, and remove any attached
spindle before auto-zeroing.

6) Attach the spindle to be used in the calibration check and lower it completely (to the primary
immersion mark) into the appropriate Brookeld Viscosity Standard Fluid.
7) The viscosity standard uid, together with the spindle, should be immersed in the bath for
a minimum of one (1) hour, stirring the uid periodically, prior to taking measurements.
8) After one (1) hour, check the temperature of the viscosity standard uid with an accurate
thermometer.
9) If the uid is at test temperature (±0.1 °C of the specied temperature, normally 25 °C),
measure the viscosity according to the following steps and record the reading.
10) Use the ↓ and ↑ keys to select the speed to be used for the calibration check. Speeds between
0.1 and 100 rpm are available for use in checking the calibration. Once a speed is selected
by pressing the Enter key, the spindle rotates at this speed, the %-Torque and Viscosity
value are displayed, and the S71 begins ashing.
11) Use the ↓ and ↑ keys to select the spindle to be used for the calibration check. Once a spindle
is selected by pressing the Enter key, the viscosity value is computed and displayed.
