Rotational Viscometer

The ViscoTester 550 from Thermo Haake is a rotational viscometer specifically designed for quality control applications.

A rotational speed is preset and the flow resistance of the sample is measured (torque required) to maintain the set speed, which is proportional to the viscosity. The results are displayed digitally and can be printed simultaneously.

The viscometer will measure samples from thick to thin, such as oils, paint, ceramic slurry, pasty creams, PVC plastisols, or mineral slurries.

The ViscoTester 550 provides flow curves, yield points, time curves, and temperature curve results.

Sensor Systems for HAAKE Viscometers & Rheometers

A range of sensor systems are available for the HAAKE range of viscometers and rheometers to meet the application requirements of various tests and samples.

HAAKE Viscotester 550
The modular design of the HAAKE Viscotester 550 system allows the use of nearly any known sensor. For example
• Coaxial Cylinder sensors according to DIN 53018 and ISO 3219. Exact temperature control can be provided by use of a circulator
• Immersion sensors according to DIN 53019 and ISO 3219
• Cone-and-plate sensors according to ISO 3219 and parallel plate sensors
• Relative sensors according to ISO 2555
• Special immersion sensors for highly filled samples or containing large particles, for the determination of the yield point

All these sensors guarantee that your results will be absolutely comparable either within your company or even worldwide with other laboratories
