Minimum Film Forming Temperature Instrument (MFFT)

• Measures the minimum film forming temperature of water based coatings
• Determines the MFFT of latex, emulsions and adhesives
• -10°C to 60°C operation for MFFT 60 and -10°C to 90°C operation for MFFT 90

MFFT Chiller

• Ultra-compact design
• 480W Cooling Capacity (@17°C set point)
• Plug in and use – No customer settings
• Low cost of purchase and operation
• Ideal for OEM Applications

Krebs Viscometer Features

Precise measurement

High stability motor speed control ensures accuracy and repeatabilty during each test. Real-time high resolution graphing allows monitoring of changes during measurement providing identification of inconsistencies between samples. Measurement results are displayed instantly on screen after test in all three units.

Advanced temperature monitoring

An integrated temperature probe accurately measures and records sample temperature for each test. As sample viscosity is influenced by test temperature, accurate monitoring and recording ensures reliability of test results.

Automatic Operation

Fully automated operation saves time by accurately lowering the paddle into the sample to the correct height for a number of standard container sizes. Once the test has completed the paddle automatically raises to drain off, saving time during cleaning.

The easy to use quick release magnetic paddle holder allows rapid removal for cleaning after use.

Easy Clean Design

Lab-tough glass allows easy removal and cleaning of unintentional splashes and smears from the capacitive sense buttons and screen. The solvent resistant anodised aluminium instrument chassis ensures the instrument can be cleaned and restored to pristine condition even in the toughest working environments.

Data Transfer

Measurement data including time, date and test temperature can be printed to a Rhopoint label printer (supplied as an optional accessory). Printed labels can be attached to each sample for easy identification and recording of results.

Measurement data can also be transferred directly into Excel using the optional data transfer cable

Calibration

Annual calibration of the Krebs Viscometer can be performed remotely by the user using the Rhopoint certified recalibration kit. Step by step instructions and automatic verification ensure accurate, traceable results.

Cone and Plate Viscometer Features

Precise Measurement
High stability motor speed control ensures accuracy and repeatability during each test. Real-time high resolution graphing allows monitoring of changes during measurement providing identification of inconsistencies between samples.
Measurement results displayed instantly on screen after test in P, cP, Pa.s or mPa.s.

Advanced Temperature Monitoring
The viscometer utilises an integrated high stability temperature controlled plate onto which the samples are applied to test.
A preheat function allows rapid stabilisation of sample temperature which is accurately controlled throughout the measurement process.

Dual Speed Operation
The instrument is configured to allow testing using shear rates according to two standardised test methods - BS (750 rpm -10,000 s¯¹) and ASTM (900 rpm - 12,000 s¯¹). Precision speed control ensures that shear rates applied are highly repeatable and test results are reliable. The combination of two test speeds and selection of viscosity ranges allow the testing of products to a wide range of international test methods.

Easy Clean Design
Lab-tough easy clean glass allows easy removal and cleaning of unintentional splashes and smears from the capacitive sense buttons and screen. The solvent resistant anodised aluminium instrument chassis ensures that the instrument can be cleaned and restored to pristine condition even in the toughest working environments.

Data Transfer
Measurement data including time, date and test temperature can be printed to a Rhopoint label printer (supplied as an optional accessory).
Printed labels can be attached to each sample for easy identification and recording of results.
