NEW RT ROTATIONAL VISCOMETER
Paul N. Gardner USA recently launched its new
byko-visc RT Rotational Viscometer. The byko-visc
RT is an instrument for precise measurement
results with each test condition recorded for
detailed results analysis and review. This precision
is repeatable day-to-day and instrument-toinstrument
due to BYK-Gardner's rigorous quality
control. An ISO 17025 calibration certificate is
supplied with each instrument to confirm this
performance.
The byko-visc RT offers an intuitive navigation, a
multitude of control options, and a large capacitive
colour touch-screen display, which includes preset
buttons to quickly recall often used measuring
parameters. These benefits reduce operator time,
so there is less time waiting and more time getting
work done.
Available in two models, byko-visc RT and
byko-visc RT Lite, each features versatility and
compatibility with three different sensitivities
and optional accessories. Measuring viscosity-
lacquers, paints, primers, resins, lubricants,
pharmaceuticals, creams, lotions, liquids soaps,
beverages, dressings, sauces-from a near waterlike,
very high viscosity to even the most viscous
epoxies, sealants, and pastes, the byko-visc RT line
is highly versatile.
It features an easy snap-on spindle attachment
saving valuable operator time while protecting
the instrument, and an adjustable stand to allow
the user to easily raise and lower the viscometer
head. The instrument is ready right out of the
box-no assembly needed. And the new line is also
compatible with many other rotational viscometer
models in terms of results, measurement
parameters, and accessories, like spindles. This will
also allow users to seamlessly transition to a bykovisc
RT system.
The byko-visc RT is recommended to test the
viscosity of liquids and pastes in compliance with
ASTM D2196, ISO 2555 and ISO1652 standards.

SATA LAUNCHES NEW FLOW REGULATION DEVICE
SATA has released its new QMR (Quick Material Regulator) for
application processes that require frequent recurring adjustments
between reduced and fully open material flow rates. This material flow
regulation device allows users to preset the required reduced material
flow rate which can be activated quickly, precisely and in reproducible
fashion at the push of a button.
The release function allows the painter to conveniently switch back
to the fully open position in seconds. The QMR also offers retrofit
options for both the SATAjet X 5500 and the SATAjet 5000 B, and it is
maintenance-free and easy to operate.
