KV1000 Constant Temperature Kinematic Viscosity Bath Operation and Instruction Manual After filling the reservoir with fluid, you must set the Safety Set and the Software High Limit as well as your desired control set point. 5.3. Circulator Pump The HIGH or LOW speed selection switch on the rear panel of the Controller is used to select pump speed. LOW is adequate for most applications and provides quieter pumping. - Page 17 KV1000 Constant Temperature Kinematic Viscosity Bath Operation and Instruction Manual Setting the Software High Limit This feature provides additional safety and protection by allowing a selectable upper temperature limit set point. To avoid an unwanted shutdown during regular operation, the high limit value should be set at least 5°C higher than the selected control temperature 1.
