The most popular AMETEK Brookfield viscometer now measures gel time! The Gel Timer DV2T Instrument uses unique magnetic coupling that attaches the glass rod to an instrument quickly & easily. When gel time is reached, the display shows both gel time and equivalent viscosity value. Integrated temperature probe provides peak exotherm data.
The Gel Timer DV2T comes with glass measurement rod, compression-fit glass rod adapter, lab stand with adjustable stop for quickly positioning glass rod at proper immersion depth in test sample, and temperature probe. Test method can be run either manually or using program stored in instrument memory. Accuracy and reliability of the Gel Timer DV2T make this instrument the preferred choice in QC for measuring gel coats, resins, and potting compounds. Viscosity data generated during the test may also prove helpful for complete characterization of material flow behavior.
Packs of 10 glass rods are available: use part number GT-1010. Spare magnetic couplings can be retrofit to existing viscometers: use part number GT-2000.
The DV2T Gel-Timer instrument can also be used as a standard rotational viscometer with the purchase of any standard viscometer spindle set or measurement accessory and carries all the same viscometry functions as a standard DV2T instrument.
