The
Rheometer RC1 is a rotational viscometer (Searle principle) for mobile use and
laboratory operation.
The highly dynamic measuring drive systeme enables rotational tests where
either shear rate or shear stress can be pre-set (CSR and CSS).
Electronic unit, keypad, measuring drive system, and measuring spindle coupling
are integrated in a portable housing.
