| DSV Basic System |
The relative viscometer is specifically designed to meet your QA/QC
requirements. It provides faster analysis than glass tubes, yields higher
accuracy and precision, and can generate over 50% savings in solvent
usage compared to traditional methods.
Manufactured in the USA, it
features a dual capillary bridge technology and is a closed loop system,
which significantly reduces operator exposure to harmful solvents. Various
levels of automation are available to save your operators time, increase
efficiency, and reduce your cost per sample analyzed.
Manual systems
include the relative viscometer, software,
and accessories which allow for
manual sample prep and injection. This is primarily suited to those with
low throughput requirements.
The Viscotek Relative Viscometer uses pressure drop to measure viscosity instead
of drop time, used by older technology. Two capillaries are connected in series
with the sample injection valve located between capillary 1 and capillary 2. Differential
Pressure Transducers (DPT) are connected in parallel across each capillary.
The sample is injected into capillary 2 and a pressure change is detected by the
DPT. The relative viscosity is determined by the ratio of the pressures multiplied
by the instrument constant K.
The Relative Viscometer Can Report the Following Results:
- Relative Viscosity
- Intrinsic Viscosity
- Inherent Viscosity
- Specific Viscosity
- Absolute Viscosity
- Molecular Weight
