Visco 2000

Introducing the Visco 2000 The Visco 2000 viscometer is the newest SHRP asphalt binder testing equipment specifically designed to perform ASTM D4402 high temperature testing of asphalt binder. The Visco 2000 offers the durability and precision that Malvern customers throughout the world have come to depend on.The Visco 2000 viscometer features an electrically heated thermal chamber with autotuned PID controller for precise regulation of asphalt temperatures up to 300C. Each Visco 2000 comes complete with titanium bobs and stainless steel cups for enhanced durability to provide years of service without replacement. Single point measurements can be performed via the instrument front panel and displayed on the built in keyboard or optional printer, eliminating the need for a PC. Customers wishing to perform more sophisticated tests or to save data on a PC can purchase the Bohlin Windows operating software.

Key Features State of the art electronic measuring principle for enhanced accuracy. Complete Portability with rechargeable battery. DIN standard concentric cylinder (cups and bobs) measuring system. Quick interchange between cylinder and cone and plate or parallel plate measuring systems. Easy to use gap set mechanism with Precision brushings to ensure repeatable gap setting between the cone and plate or parallel plate. Simultaneous temperature measurements to +/-0.1c. Digital display of torque, speed, viscosity, shear stress, shear rate and and temperature. Optional Viscosoft software for computer control.
Wide range of measuring systems for direct correlation with other instruments.

Optional integrated 'Data Processing' software for QC pass/fail criteria and rheological model fitting e.g. Bingham, Casson, Herschel Bulkey etc...
