The HAAKE ViscoTester 550 is a rotational viscometer for automated quality control suitable for the complete characterization of fluids in rotational mode, e.g. determination of yield points in CD (controlled deformation) mode and thixotropy. All results are displayed in the built-in digital LED display or in the optional HAAKE Rheowin-software. Extreme accuracy in an easy to use design.
Product Detail
The HAAKE ViscoTester 550 is a rotational viscometer for sophisticated and automated quality control giving absolute viscosity data at defined shear rates and accurate temperature control.
It is suitable for the complete characterization of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids including the measurement of yield points or thixotropy. The built-in display shows all relevant results and you can plot the flow-/viscosity curve with software. An RS232 computer connection is standard and the special HAAKE RheoWin software is optional.
Application
With the DIN/ISO viscometer and the cylinder measuring system, fluids from many different fields of industry can be characterized according to DIN53019/ISO 3219. Flow curves deliver a rheological determination of Newtonian and non-Newtonian behavior. Application properties like sedimentation, spreadability or running properties of higher viscosity products are determined by measuring the yield point in the CD-mode.
Features:
Automatic recording of flow curves
Time measurements
Temperature programs (with optional circulator)
CD-method (preset deformation) for the determination of a yield point
Viscosity measurements according to DIN 53019/ISO 3219
Interchangeable rotors for medium and high viscosity products
