The compact and economical TESC-5133 low-temperature viscometer integrates and automates the ASTM D5133 process of conditioning and testing low-temperature viscosities of lubricants.
Common applications include gear oils, automatic transmission fluids, torque and tractor fluids, industrial and automotive hydraulic oils, industrial lubricants and other fluids where low temperature viscosity is critical.
Fully integrated and automated conditioning and testing (-42°C to +90°C):
Provides an automated alternative to ASTM D5133 testing
Reduces variability of results due to temperature fluctuation and user intervention
Provides better accuracy
Allows unattended operation
Sample thermal conditioning completed without user intervention:
Reduces instrument setup time.
The TESC 5133 Windows® 10 software records the temperature and viscosity of the sample during the test, then calculates the temperature (gel index temperature) at which there is a rapid change in viscosity (gel index).
Ultra-compact design:
Allows the installation of several TESC systems in a relatively small benchtop area for greater testing versatility.
It requires little space in the laboratory.
Easy lifting system:
Configured for use with the Brookfield® DV2T 1/2 RV viscometer.
Simplifies the positioning of the viscometer head.
Solid state thermoelectric cooling:
Peltier cooling is environmentally friendly and does not require the use of hazardous fluids.
The enclosed sample chamber provides a uniform, temperature-controlled environment throughout the test.
