ViscoPakt®-Torque Measurement Stirrers
The ViscoPakt®-rheo model family was developed for applications which demand an exact recording of the torque, viscosity or the dissipated power and a precise maintenance of the rotational speed. In addition, the devices provide increased precision in rotational speed regulation and torque measurement and extended functions.

ViscoPakt®-mini-rheo-35
The ViscoPakt®-mini-rheo-35 is a precision measuring stirrer with an especially compact construction. It is used where high torques must be generated in the narrowest of spaces. This occurs particularly in small reactor systems with a nominal volume of below 500 ml and, at the same time, many connecting pieces as may be used, for example, for parallel syntheses.
The ViscoPakt®-mini-rheo-35 is used, among other situations, in our LabKit™ and MultiLab™ parallel reactor systems.

ViscoPakt®-rheo
The ViscoPakt®-rheo model series contains a precision torque measuring device. The zero torque which is dependent on the rotational speed is recorded in an automatic calibration process and is used for the correction of the torque signal. It is thus possible to determine the viscosity (by a calibration table) and other rheological parameters online.
Changes in rotational speed caused by load fluctuations are recorded by a digital rotational speed sensor and electronically controlled. The rotational speed can be given via the analogue input or the serial interface. The actual rotational speed and the torque are issued via the analogue outputs and the serial interface.
