RheoSense – Viscometers
VROC® powered viscometers require small samples and are quick and easy to obtain accurate viscosity measurements. RheoSense’s proprietary technology powers all of our viscometers; enabling ease of use, smaller samples, and a wider dynamic range (shear rate and temperature).
Viscosity is at the heart of all we do!
Viscosity is one of the most important parameters in the development and modeling of applications that involve fluid flow.
Key Features
- Small Samples: The RheoSense m-VROC II can measure samples as small as 15 uL.
- Reliable Data: The nstruments provide reliable, repeatable results with a wide viscosity range of 0.2 ~ 100,000 mPa-s (cP).
