CAP 1000+ /CAP 2000+ Viscometer

The versatility of the CAP 1000+ and CAP 2000+ Viscometer makes these instruments a practical tool for any QC or R&D lab requiring quick and easy testing of materials, regardless of application, at high shear rates.

• Provides for viscosity measurements at high shear rates
• LCD display of viscosity in Poise or Pascal-seconds
• Uses less than 2 ml of sample to avoid excess cleaning and material costs
• Automatic viscosity range calibration and cone gap positioning make the viscometer easy to use
• Set the viscometer to take a reading at different timed intervals to ensure accuracy of results with thixotropic fluids

CAP 1000+
• Two available speeds to comply with all paint industry standards worldwide (750 and 900 rpms)

CAP 2000+
• Variable speed instrument with a speed range of 5 to 1,000 rpm that allows for varying shear rates from 10 to 13,300 sec-1;
• Bi-directional RS-232 interface that allows for PC control with the optional CAPCALC software

1/23 CAP Version

The 1/23 CAPs are for lower shear applications. QC methods for Automotive clear coat and base coat are utilizing the 1/23 CAP. Most methods are single point pass/fail criteria using #10 spindle at 100 rpm; a shear rate of 500 1/sec and measurement range from 220 – 2200 cP is achieved. There are two instruments available. The 1000+L version with a fixed speed of 100 rpms and the 2000+L version with a speed range from 5 – 1000 rpms. The 2000+L version with the multiple speed selection provides more flexibility to modify test procedures.
