BGD 184 Stormer Viscometer is used for measuring the viscosity of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in accordance with ASTM D562. The viscosity of a non-Newtonian material varies depending on the rate of shear, but the Krebs Stormer Viscometer can measure the viscosity at a set speed shear rate which provides a consistent standard.
Based on the popular traditional KREBS method, using a weight-driven rotating paddle to sense the paint viscosity at a constant 200 rpm, this modern digital instrument provides automated motor operation, without weights & pulleys, allowing accurate direct reading in KU (kerbs units) or G (Grams). The conversion between these units is automatically calculated by the microprocessor and displayed on request. Sturdy construction allows for use either in a production environment or in the laboratory.
Features:
◆ LED digital display gives the reading in Krebs units or grams.
◆ The quick release chuck enables rapid cleaning and changeover of the paddle
◆ Self-protection function under/over range.
