Wholesale Laboratory Bitumen Digital Rotational Brookfield Viscometer Testing Instrument Manufacturers, Pricelist

The automatic brookfield rotational viscometer is manufactured according to the test standard of the asphalt brookfield viscometer. The apparent viscosity of road asphalt in the temperature range above 45°C is measured in millipascal seconds (mPa﹒s) by the rotation method. According to the measurement results, the recommended mixing and compaction working temperature can be obtained. Compared with similar products, it has the advantages of high measurement accuracy, stable viscosity value display, easy reading, simple operation, and good anti-interference performance. It is specially used to measure the apparent viscosity of road asphalt. It can also be used to measure the viscosity of various fluids such as hot melt adhesives, paraffin, polymers, etc.

Features: It is suitable for standard high-temperature viscosity in different viscosity ranges, and its range meets the requirements of the viscosity of the modified asphalt being measured

Automatic temperature control system, including constant temperature control, sample tube, temperature sensor and different types of rotors.

Operation Points

1
Instrument installation
Install on a workbench without corrosive gas, strong electromagnetic interference, and vibration, and connect all components as required.
2
Rotor selection
Select a suitable rotor according to the viscosity range of the sample to be tested.
3
Constant temperature control
Place the rotor and sample tube together in a temperature-controlled oven for insulation. During the test, the asphalt sample is kept warm in the constant temperature container of the viscometer to reach the equilibrium temperature required for the test for no less than 15 minutes.
4
Speed selection
Control the torque reading of the Brookfield rotational viscometer within the range of 10% to 98%, the torque range of road asphalt is controlled between 20% and 70%, and the torque range of modified asphalt is controlled at about 50%.

Maintenance

1
Before and after use, the inner wall of the rotating drum and the measuring device should be cleaned and wiped dry to ensure the accuracy of the instrument measurement.
2
The storage place of the instrument should always be kept dry to prevent the internal parts of the instrument from being damaged by moisture.
3
The parts inside the instrument shall not be disassembled at will, and the hairspring is strictly prohibited from being disassembled to avoid affecting the accuracy of the instrument.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the measurement range and accuracy of this rotational viscometer?

A: The measurement range of the instrument is 100mPa.s to 200,000mPa.s. It operates with a measurement error of ±3% F.S. and maintains a high temperature control accuracy of ±0.1℃.

Q2: Which rotors are supported, and what are their speed configurations?

A: The unit comes standard with a 27# rotor, with optional 21#, 28#, and 29# rotors available. The speed settings can be configured to 5 rpm, 10 rpm, 20 rpm, or 50 rpm.

Q3: What environment is required for installing the instrument?

A: It must be installed on a stable workbench in an area free from corrosive gases, strong electromagnetic interference, and mechanical vibrations to ensure proper function and data accuracy.

Q4: How should temperature be controlled during testing?

A: Place the rotor and sample tube together in a temperature-controlled oven for pre-insulation. The asphalt sample must be kept in the constant temperature container of the viscometer for at least 15 minutes to reach the required equilibrium temperature before testing begins.

Q5: How do I select the speed and control the torque during operation?

A: The torque reading of the Brookfield rotational viscometer should be maintained within the range of 10% to 98%. For road asphalt, control the torque between 20% and 70%. For modified asphalt, maintain it at approximately 50%.

Q6: What are the key maintenance procedures to follow?

A: Clean and dry the measuring device and inner wall of the rotating drum before and after each use. Store the instrument in a dry environment to avoid moisture damage, and never disassemble internal parts or the hairspring yourself.
