Rotational viscometers are accurate,
easy to use
Rotational viscometers are ideal for determining the viscosity of liquids, which do not depend solely on temperature or pressure, the behaviour of non-Newtonian liquids can also be analysed.
Elcometer are pleased to announce the launch of their new range of rotational viscometers The Elcometer 2300 range of rotational viscometers are ideal for determining the viscosity of liquids which do not depend solely on temperature or pressure, the behaviour of non-Newtonian as well as Newtonian liquids can be analysed

Display menus manage thickness gauging
By using display menus to control the use of the many convenient features offered, this coating thickness gauge has revolutionised the measurement of coating thicknesses.
The Elcometer 2300 range are accurate, easy to use and reliable instruments which can be used in accordance with all relevant standards.
Available in four versions the Elcometer 2300, with a measuring range of between 3-20,000,000mPa, are available as either manually controlled or fully PC programmable and controllable for automated testing.
This allows the user to pre-define and store process variables, such as start rev/min, end rev/min, test duration, start time delay and temperature, for repeated and consistent testing.
Key features of all Elcometer 2300 Rotational Viscometers include the following.
* A backlit LCD display which clearly shows the viscosity reading in cP or mPa together with spindle rotation speed, % torque, sample temperature, auto range, shear rate and shear stress.
* An extensive range of accessories are available which enable the Elcometer 2300 to measure materials with a viscosity as low as 1cP, high viscosity materials such as creams, gels, pastes and epoxies, products where there is only a small sample available - up to 200 deg C/392 deg F.
* Each Elcometer 2300 is supplied with the relevant set of quick connect spindles, liquid temperature probe and Elcometer's ViscosityMaster software where data can be stored with associated photographs, test notes and other relevant information.
* A range of test speeds from 0.3 rev/min to 200 rev/min.
The versatile Elcometer 2300 range is part of a comprehensive range of flow cups, dip cups, cone and plate and rotational viscometers offered by Elcometer to meet their customers' viscosity measurement requirements.
* About Elcometer - Elcometer are leading manufacturers of high quality inspection equipment, with specialised divisions dedicated to coatings inspection, concrete inspection and metal detection.
