The Thermo Scientific HAAKE Viscotester E – expert, D – distinct and C – convenient, units can be used for tests and comparative measurements for quality control according to recognized standards.
The HAAKE Viscotester E, D and C are classical rotational viscometers that measure the resistance of a test substance against a preset speed. The resulting torque or resistance measures the viscosity of the fluid. The higher the torque, the higher the viscosity. Due to the type of standardised geometries, the shear rates generated can only be determined precisely for Newtonian substances.
Compatibility
The basic ISO 2555 standard describes the design and the characteristic measuring technique of a viscosity measuring instrument (torque, speed, rotor geometry). If rotational viscometers meet these requirements, results comply.
Common features of the HAAKE Viscotester E, D and C
