Product Description
Portable rotary viscometer acc. to Brookfield Method suitable for production process and for laboratories and research centres any time when quick and reliable determination of viscosity are required.
The most outstanding feature of the portable viscometers VP 1000 M is their user-friendliness. Thanks to this characteristic it becomes an ideal tool to carry out measurements in the own premises during the manufacturing process for batch control.
Viscometers from the VP 1000 M series are very light (1,8kg) already assembled and ready to be used. They offer an important autonomy to the end user because they are battery operated. Two lines digital display with backlight. Viscosity reading is shown in screen together with full scale %. Instrument displays maximum measurement range when selecting spindle.
Instrument is supplied with 6 standard spindles (R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7) and with a tailor-made measuring vessel, featuring a special anchoring system to ease centering of sample container and preventing vessel to be pushed aside by the rotating forces.
MYR portable viscometer VP 1000 M series is used to measure viscosity in samples from different industrial sectors: chemical, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic and print among others.

FAQs of VISCOMETER VP 1000 M:
Q: How is the VISCOMETER VP 1000 M used for viscosity measurement?
A: The VISCOMETER VP 1000 M measures viscosity by rotating a spindle within the liquid sample at controlled speeds (0.3 to 60 rpm). As resistance to spindle rotation is detected, the device calculates viscosity values, displayed directly on the digital LCD. Both manual and programmed modes can be selected depending on the analysis requirements.
Q: What items are included with the VP 1000 M viscometer upon purchase?
A: Each unit comes with four standard spindles (L1-L4), an adjustable stand, a power adapter, and connectivity options such as USB and RS232 ports. The package also includes the necessary cabling, user manual, and a digital LCD interface for effortless setup and operation.
Q: Where can the VISCOMETER VP 1000 M be used?
A: Designed for laboratories and industrial facilities, this viscometer thrives in environments requiring precise fluid analysis. Its robust build and versatile application range make it suitable for exporters, importers, manufacturers, suppliers, and traders throughout India and globally.
Q: What are the benefits of using the VP 1000 Ms programmable operation mode?
A: Programmable mode enables automated sample testing, enhancing repeatability and accuracy while reducing manual intervention. This is especially beneficial for routine testing, batch analysis, and quality control, minimizing user error and optimizing efficiency.
Q: How does the overload protection function benefit the user?
A: The built-in overload protection safeguards the device and user by automatically halting operation if excessive resistance or sample viscosity is detected, preventing mechanical damage and ensuring measurement consistency.
Q: What is the recommended process for cleaning and maintaining the device?
A: After each measurement, spindles should be detached and thoroughly cleaned with an appropriate solvent. The stainless steel and ABS surfaces can be wiped with a soft cloth. Regular calibration checks are recommended to maintain measurement accuracy.
