INTRODUCING THE TESC-5133
Low Temperature Viscometer for Engine Lubricants Providing Automated ASTM D5133 Testing
The compact, economical TESC-5133 viscometer integrates and automates the ASTM D5133 process of conditioning and testing low temperature viscosities of engine lubricants.
Included Windows® 10 software application records sample temperature and viscosity throughout the test, then computes the Gelation Index. Compact design allows installation of multiple TESC Systems in a relatively small benchtop area for redundancy and greater testing versatility, while conserving precious bench space.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Fully integrated and automated thermal conditioning and testing (-42 °C to +90 °C)
- Complete system with viscometer, thermal conditioning system, spindle and CRM reference standards
- Simple USB interface to user-supplied Windows 10 PC
- Superior precision
- Allows for unattended operation
Sample thermal conditioning completed without operator intervention
- Reduces instrument set-up time
- TESC 5133 Windows 10 software records sample temperature and viscosity throughout the test, then computes the temperature (Gel Index Temperature) at which there is a rapid change in viscosity (Gelation Index)
Cost effective, ultra-compact design
- Allows installation of multiple TESC systems in a relatively small benchtop area for redundancy and greater testing versatility
- Conserves precious bench space
Configured for use with the Brookfield® DV2T viscometer 1/2 RV
- Easy-lift system
- Simplifies positioning of the Brookfield viscometer head
Solid-state thermoelectric cooling
- Peltier cooling is environmentally friendly, does not require the use of hazardous bath fluids
- Enclosed sample chamber provides a uniform, controlled test temperature environment during the entire test
