1 Additional insulation for improved temperature stability.
2 Rotor collars for prevention of condensation and sample contamination.
3 Rotor locking pins for prevention of unwanted rotor motion and consistent initiation of test.
4 Hardened steel rotor pivot points for greater consistency and reliability.
5 Carbon-fibre rotor shafts for mitigation of heat transfer to or from the test cell.
These enhancements have reduced variation in test results for some materials/temperatures from 20 percent to nine percent! This extraordinary improvement translates directly into significant cost savings in the blending process for products meeting SAE J300 specifications.
The CMRV-4500 can also be used to determine apparent viscosity and yield stress of used engine oils per ASTM D 6896, and can be configured to perform viscosity testing for drive line fluids per ASTM D 6821 with an available 'Drive Line Rotor kit'. Request a free brochure from Labtex ...
