Rheometer

SPECIFICATION

Model: MCR 302

Manufacturer: Anton Paar

DESCRIPTION

The MCR 302 is a highly sensitive instrument capable of performing a wide range of rheological measurements. Both rotational and oscillatory measurements can be performed using either Double Gap or Cone or Plate geometries. The Double Gap geometry allows for measurement of low viscosity fluids to a very high degree of accuracy, such as variations in water viscosity in the presence of brine salts. Peltier heating systems allow for measurement up to 200 °C while a high pressure cell (Double Gap and Concentric Cylinder) enables measurements to be performed at up to 400 Bar.
