Move the RPM / Wobble gauge and repeat this procedure for all

applicable vessel positions for each spindle speed desired.

3.1.2. Centering

To verify the shaft of each active position of the apparatus is in the

"center" of each vessel, place the appropriate gauge on the shaft at the

desired vessel position. Locate the gauge on the shaft at the point where

centering is to be verified – ensure the gauge remains on the cylindrical

portion of the vessel.

Agilent's VK 5010 can be utilized for this measurement and provides a

printout with the distance from the centerline (in mm). The Vessel

Centering Tool included with the 708-DS can be used for a quick "go / no-

go" verification with the help of the Ease Align adapter (QA II Station

accessory).

Move the centering gauge and repeat this procedure for all applicable

vessel positions.

Adjustment of the vessel table level for the unit has been discussed in

Section 2.1.5. Verification of the level can be performed by placing a

digital or bubble level in the middle of the vessel plate.

If a non-quantitative level is used (e.g. torpedo level), the front-to-back

level, as well as the right-to-left level should be verified.
