Cambridge Viscosity, Inc., (USA) has announced the development of a new viscosity measurement system, the Viscolab 5000 micro-sample viscometer. Designed for laboratory use, the Viscolab 5000 provides accurate and reliable results using only 75 microliters of sample – the smallestsample requirement for any automated viscosity measurement system.
“We’re committed to being responsive to customer needs,†says Arthur D. Hindman, Executive Vice- President of Cambridge Viscosity. “While we offer a full line of laboratory viscometers with low sample size requirements, one of our customers had a specific need for a device capable of measuring limited quantities of expensive fluidsvery small volumes. Our engineers responded with the VP5000, a system that sets a new standard for more cost-effective analysis of precious fluids.†We've developed the VISCOlab 5000 in response to that need.†With the Viscolab 5000, samples are introduced to the measurement chamber manually via a pipette. The rest of the process is fully automatic. The Viscolab 5000 controls the temperature of the sample, measures its viscosity, processes the data, and displays the results on the unit’s easy-to-read screen or sends them to an optional printer. User-friendlySimple to use, easy to clean, and accurate withinat plus or minus 1% of at calibration points, the Viscolab 5000 brings remarkable new viscosity measurement capabilities to laboratory environments.
