Electronic timing unit for glass capillary viscometers
Timing unit for capillary viscometer
The ViscoCIock plus is an electronic timing unit for glass capillary viscometers used to determine kinematic and relative viscosity. Succeeding the well-proven ViscoCIock, the new instrument features data storage and simpler handling. The ViscoClock plus is especially designed for Ubbelohde type viscometers which are well-known for highest precision.
The ViscoClock plus is available as a stand-alone device and as a package with thermostatic baths:

The ViscoClock plus automatically measures the flow time of temperature-stabilized liquids in capillary viscometers by means of infrared light barriers: the manual measurement with a stopwatch becomes obsolete.
The viscometer including a sample is inserted into the ViscoClock plus and immersed into a thermostatic bath for temperature stabilization. After thermostating, the sample is pumped into the measuring bulb, and the flow time is detected automatically. The large display enables easy read-off of flow times and additional information: date, time, sample ID and viscometer ID.
Note: A VZ 6550 hand pump is already included in the scope of delivery of the ViscoClock plus (285417900). It is particularly suitable for Ubbelohde and micro Ubbelohde viscometers. When using micro Ostwald viscometers, we recommend using the VZ 6554 hand pump (suction instead of pressure operation), which must be ordered separately.
