Model Q Quick Action Lab Stand

RheocalcT Software

The "EXTRA" combines the versatile viscosity testing

capabilities of the DV2T with a durable and easy viscosity
measurements suspension system, EZ-Lock Spindle Coupling,
Quick Action Lab Stand and free RheocalcT software. It features a
5-inch color display to guide users through test creation and data
gathering for fast and easy viscosity measurements. The DV2T
Extra also offers powerful new programming capabilities and
results analysis including data averaging and QC limits with
alarms. User instructions with multi-step test protocols can be
created using the new Program Generator Software and
uploaded to the viscometer through a USB Flash Drive (both
included with instrument). Test Data can be recorded directly on a
local printer or sent to a PC. The new user interface provides
enhanced security with customizable user levels & password
access to comply with regulatory requirements such as 21 CFR
Part 11.

SPRING TORQUE

Each of our standard Laboratory Viscometers/ Rheometers are supplied with an internal spring used to
calculate the viscosity of a material. These springs have different measuring capabilities:

LV is for low viscosity materials and can measure the thinnest materials. Typical examples include inks, oils,
and solvents.
RV is for medium viscosity materials than those measured with an LV torque. Typical examples include creams,
food, and paints.
HA is for higher viscosity materials than those measured with an RV torque. Typical examples include gels,
chocolate and epoxies.
HB is for even higher viscosity materials than those measured with an HA torque spring. Typical examples
include asphalt, caulking compounds, and molasses.
Additional special springs are also available upon request. To learn more about spring ranges and model
selection, please call Brookfield Engineering or one of our authorized dealers.

EZ-LOCK
Please note that this instrument is equipped with an EZ-Lock Spindle Coupling System and will only work with
other EZ-Lock spindles and accessories.

LEARN ABOUT VISCOSITY

Need help? Our Education section may be just the thing to clarify unfamiliar terms and help start you on your way
to a better understanding of viscosity. Learn about viscosity and rheological relationships, Newtonian and nonNewtonian fluids, and how a Brookfield instrument can help your production process and much more.
