PCE Instruments PCE-RVI 2 Viscometer

The rotary viscometer has a measurement range from 1 to 100,000 cp. The viscosity is determined by the rotary viscometer on the basis of a mechanical resistance that acts opposite to the rotational movement of a spindle. The rotary viscometer can be operated at an adjustable speed between 6 and 60 RPM. Many liquids are subjected to thermal stress and therefore change their viscosity, such as engine oils. This is exactly where the stationary viscometer is used. An immersion temperature sensor (optional) can be used to determine the temperature of a test sample during measurement between 0 and 100 °C. In order to obtain a course of measurement, the rotary viscometer can be connected to a PC via the RS232 interface. The optional software can then be used to create a temperature and viscosity curve during a measurement. To ensure that the measuring spindle is always perpendicular to the medium to be measured, the rotary viscometer can be leveled via the feet. A spirit level is located on the rotary viscometer to verify correct alignment. At the same time, the rotary viscometer can adjust the height of the test device by 25 cm in order to position the spindle appropriately.
