Biobase Digital Viscometer BDV-1S

Biobase Digital Viscometer BDV-1S

The Biobase BDV-1S Digital Viscometer is a compact and economical solution for measuring the viscosity of Newtonian fluids in laboratory settings. Designed as part of the BDV-S series, it offers reliable results and ease of use for users requiring basic viscosity testing. Though it does not include a temperature probe, it remains suitable for general-purpose applications where real-time temperature tracking is not critical. With a fixed spindle set and multiple speed options, the BDV-1S provides consistency and usability for routine analysis.

Features

1. Powered by a 16-bit MCU central control circuit for stable operation and digital accuracy.

2. Features gearless drive technology for smooth, quiet performance and increased durability.

3. Equipped with an LCD display to clearly show rotational speed and viscosity measurements.

4. Operates with four selectable spindle speeds: 6, 12, 30, and 60 rpm.

5. Designed with four spindle types (L1 to L4), covering a moderate viscosity range.

6. Optional accessories such as temperature probes and printers are not included in the BDV-1S, making it more affordable for entry-level users.

Applications

1. Suitable for laboratories conducting basic viscosity measurements on low to medium-viscosity Newtonian fluids.

2. Used in educational institutions for teaching viscosity measurement principles.

3. Applicable in the food industry for checking fluid consistency such as syrups or sauces.

4. Ideal for cosmetic product developers analyzing lotions and creams.

5. Supports small-scale paint and ink manufacturers in ensuring product uniformity.

6. Helpful in QA departments for incoming material inspection and batch testing.
