Description
ROTAVISC SBS me-vi HELI Complete S003 is a rotational viscometer package fitted with a Swiss plug, intended for rapid and exact viscosity measurement. SBS (steel ball bearing, suspended) technology replaces jewel bearings and gives the instrument outstanding robustness for high sample throughput, frequent spindle changes, harsh environments or regular relocation. The measuring range covers 100 to 40.000.000 mPas. Accuracy reaches ± 1 % of the measuring range for both Newtonian and non-Newtonian liquids, while reproducibility is ± 0,2 %. With the motorised HELISTAND the viscometer and rotating body move slowly and evenly up and down in the sample, enabling viscosity measurement in motion. The large 4,3″ TFT display provides clear, intuitive menu navigation; a digital level helps set correct start conditions and a simple ramp function streamlines repetitive tasks. Rotational speed can be adjusted continuously or defined via programmes and individual steps. Offered as a complete package from manufacturer IKA, the system supports everyday and advanced laboratory viscosity work.

Questions about ROTAVISC SBS me-vi HELI Complete S003, Rotational viscometer package with Swiss
What is this article?
ROTAVISC SBS me-vi HELI Complete S003, Rotational viscometer package with Swiss is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
