Description: Brookfield’s CAP-2000+ offers expanded temperature and viscosity ranges with variable speed capability. The CAP2000+ also offers lower shear rates, making it suitable for many applications where small sample volume and good temperature control are necessary. And the rugged, easy-to-use design makes it perfect in environments where other instruments don’t last.
Specifications:
- Viscosity 0.2 – 15,000 Poise
- Shear Rate 10 – 13000 sec-1
- Temperature 5-75°C
- Speed of Rotation 5-1000 RPM
- Meets Industry Standards: ASTM D4287, ISO 2884 and BS 3900
- Small sample size, < 1 mL, simplifies testing
- Integrated temperature control
- Optional CAPCALC32 software for complete control and data analysis
