Brookfield RSO Rheometer

    Effortless and Accurate Rheology Measurements for QC and R&D Applications

    The Brookfield RSO Oscillatory Rheometer is designed for rapid, accurate rheological testing with a user-friendly interface that meets the needs of both Quality Control (QC) and Research & Development (R&D) environments. Using oscillatory measurements through the use of a low friction air bearing allows for very precise viscoelastic measurements.  Its flexibility allows for both cone/plate and concentric cylinder geometries in a single instrument, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of material testing applications.


KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Controlled Shear Stress/Shear Rate Operation:
    Precision air bearing and oscillatory measurements allow the study of     static yield, flow curves, and visco-elastic behavior with precise control over shear stress and shear rate.

  • User-Friendly Touch Screen:
    Stand-alone operation is simplified with an intuitive touch screen and graphical display, making it easy to navigate and manage tests.

  • Quick Connect Coupling System:
    Effortlessly attach spindles with the quick connect coupling system, reducing setup time.

  • Instrument Flexibility:
    Versatile design allows for both cone/plate and concentric cylinder configurations in a single instrument, providing adaptability for various testing needs.

  • Small Sample Size:
    Test with very small sample volumes, enabling rapid setup and easy cleanup, ideal for labs with limited sample availability.

  • Spindle Barcode Recognition:
    Automatic spindle recognition through barcode scanning streamlines the testing process and ensures accurate data entry.

  • Standalone Simplicity:
    Perfect for QC users, the instrument offers straightforward, standalone operation without the need for a PC.

  • Automatic Gap Setting:
    Quickly and easily set the gap between the spindle and plate with the automatic gap setting feature, enhancing accuracy and reducing setup time

  • Rapid Temperature Control:
    Achieve quick profiling of viscosity versus temperature with the Peltier option, offering rapid and precise temperature control.

  • Optional Rheo3000 Software:
    Enhance your testing capabilities with optional Rheo3000 software, allowing for PC control, data acquisition, and analysis of multiple test files.
