Ametek Brookfield CAP 1000+ Viscometer

Description

The CAP 1000+ Viscometer is a compact, heavy-duty instrument that is ideal for fast, easy, repetitive testing on the production floor or in the QC lab. Small sample size is a plus, along with integrated temperature control built into the sample plate.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Quick single point test
Choice of shear rate. Standard speeds include 750 and 900 rpm to provide shear rate at 10,000 sec-1.
Rapid temperature control with built-in Peltier element in sample plate
Meets Industry Standards: ASTM D4287, ISO 2884 and BS 3900
Rugged design can handle production environment
Small Sample Size, < 1 mL, Simplifies Testing
Easy to Clean
Customizable options
Parallel printer output
LET US HELP YOU CONFIGURE THE CAP 1000+ TO PROVIDE A SIMPLE, SINGLE POINT, VISCOSITY TEST
Specify one speed or shear rate if this is required for your method.
