The Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ Viscotester™ 3 rotationalviscometer puts reliable viscosity measurements in the lab, orright in your hand. Everything about this instrument is designedto ensure ease of use – its sophisticated design, individual usersettings, graphical display with user guidance, and more. All thatcomes in a ready-to-go package complete with carrying case. It’sso easy to use…it’s just sheer genius.
Ease of use is built right into the HAAKE Viscotester 3 viscometerin a variety of ways. With its unique design, the instrumentpositions itself automatically with the correct alignment whetherhandheld or on a lab stand. The quick coupling enables a smartexchange of the rotors. In addition, user guidance is provided bycolor-coded geometries and a measuring range indicator. Plus,“Memory Assist” functionality allows the operator to quickly andeasily compare measured viscosities with a reference value.
Measuring principle
A rotor rotating at a constant speedis immersed in the fluid to be tested.The fluid’s resistance to the rotationis measured and converted into aviscosity measurement.
