FAQs
What is the highest viscosity value the BEVS 1131/360 can measure?
This model, using Spindle 3, is capable of measuring dynamic viscosity up to , which translates to ().
Why is a fixed speed important for high-viscosity materials?
The fixed high speed ensures a constant, high rate of shear is applied. This shear rate is necessary to accurately simulate the forces that high-viscosity coatings experience during application processes like spraying or pumping.
Is the BEVS 1131/360 suitable for extremely thick materials like mastics or sealants?
With a range extending up to , the BEVS 1131/360 is highly suitable for testing a wide variety of thick, high-solids materials, including many industrial coatings and high-viscosity adhesives.
If my material is slightly over , will the measurement be inaccurate?
Measurements slightly above the maximum range of will exceed the calibrated accuracy threshold. For materials consistently exceeding this limit, a different type of viscometer with a higher torque range would be required.
Does the instrument require a specific sample can size for this spindle?
Yes, the BEVS 1131 series is typically standardized to use a tin can for the test sample, ensuring the sample geometry and volume are consistent for all measurements.
