Viscometer Heating Baths
● Performance
▶ Temperature range from ambient +5°Cto 150°C.
▶ Microprocessor PID control / Automatic tuning / Calibration.
▶ Optimal temperature equilibrium achieved by a vane type stirrer with strong circulation power.
● Convenience
▶ Easy readout digital LED displays. (0.01°Cresolution at 0 to 99.9°C/ 0.1°C resolution at 100 to 150°C)
▶ Dual wait on/off timer modes. (1 min. to 99 hr. 59 min.)
▶ Convenient memory function of up to three frequently set temperature.
▶ Clear visibility provided by double tempered safety glass windows in front and rear sides. (for operation from 10°C, use an optional cooling circulator)
▶ Ø 51mm holes (for glass capillary viscometer tubes) and a Ø12.6 mm hole. (for a thermometer)
▶ RS-232 interface for external control and data collection.
▶ Monitor via mobile app anytime, anywhere with LC Connected (mobile monitoring system) connection. (when purchased LC GreenBox)
● Safety
▶ Isolated design of agitator, heater, and sensor by a baffle plate to minimize the turbulence in the bath fluid and also to protect users and samples against direct contact.
▶ Complete safety protection system with warning alarms.
- Low fluid level and dry-running, over-temperature, over-current.
