HAAKE Viscotester 1 plus & 2 plus
Application
These small, battery-operated rotational viscometers are suitable for quick and reliable tests andcomparative measurements for quality control applications. The
hand-held instruments can also be operated on a stand.
User friendliness
The operation of the HAAKE Viscotester 1 plus & 2 plus is especially easy due to the one-button operation. The Viscotester is switched on and off by pushing the button once. Pushing the button again selects the rotor type and starts the measurement.
Digital display
Contrary to the traditional Viscotester models where the viscosity value is read from an analog dial, the HAAKE Viscotesters 1 plus and 2 plus show the viscosity value on a digital display. Therefore, errors caused by misreading the dial belong
to the past. Possible handling errors as well as service information are also shown on the display.
Main features
• Quick, exact and reliable
• One button operation
• LCD display
• No mains supply required
Typical application fields
• Quick viscosity tests, e.g. for process optimization or machine adjustment
• Batch control in production
Typical samples
• Printing inks, paints, inks
• Shampoos, creams, lotions
• Oils, greases, pastes
• Sauces, thickeners
Measuring principle
A rotor rotating at a constant speed is immersed in the fluid to be tested; the fluid’s resistance to the rotation measures the viscosity of the fluid. The small battery-operated rotational viscometer can be operated independent of a mains
supply, so that quick and reliable viscosity measurements can be performed virtually everywhere.
Compatibility
Measuring cups and rotors of the previous models HAAKE VT01 and VT02 can also be used with the plus units.
