Mini Viscometer and Density Meter

OptiMVD – PAC Phase Technology

FAST AND RELIABLE VISCOSITY MEASUREMENT-
OptiMVD measures viscosity according to ASTM D7945. This method is based upon the Hagen-Poiseuille principle of capillary flow. To determine viscosity with OptiMVD, a sample is drawn from a capped sample vial and then introduced into the measuring cell at a controlled, specified temperature. The measuring cell contains a horizontal capillary tube with optical sensors. A thermal block surrounds the measuring cell. Density is determined by the ASTM D7777 method. The OptiMVD measures density at multiple temperatures yielding precision that is much better than other D7777 density meters.

SIMPLE, EASY OPERATION
OptiMVD operation begins by simply loading a sample vial onto the sample injection port or into a carousel, then starting the test using the 13.3” color touchscreen. Heating, cleaning, and drying are automatically controlled. Up to two solvents can be used. The supplied waste container can accommodate
over 50 tests with complete two-solvent cleaning. A “Favorites” list can be created, then touch-selected and dragged to any open position on a carousel. Users can pre-fill carousel positions from the “Favorites” list. Alternatively, users can add individual samples by touching the carousel location. Once the carousel is loaded, press “START RUN” to begin the test. Users can prioritize specific samples regardless of the loading queue

Features:

• Automatic loading, testing, cleaning, and drying in all models
• Viscosity range: Up to 2000 cSt @ 40°C and up to 180 cSt @ 100 Deg°C
• Peltier Temperature control between 15°C to 100°C
• Built-in heating for high viscosity samples
• In the AS2 model – both viscosity measurements – 40°C and 100°C – are done on the SAME SAMPLE SIMULTANEOUSLY – thus increasing the throughput of your analysis significantly
• Automatic VI calculation in AS2 model
• Very low solvent consumption
• Capped sample vials to avoid loss of volatiles
