Brookfield Engineering has introduced a series of free online training videos detailing how to verify calibration of viscometers and rheometers.
Available to registered customers on Brookfield's website under support/video clips, customers can view them whenever they have a question about the calibration-check procedure.
These videos demonstrate Brookfield's recommended method for performing a comprehensive calibration check on viscometers and rheometers in different configurations, including standard disc spindles with a 600ml beaker, coaxial cylinder geometries such as the Small Sample Adapter, Wells/Brookfield Cone and Plate Instruments, and R/S-CPS Cone Plate Rheometers.
The videos discuss topics including instrument setup, temperature control of sample, calibration tolerances and pass/fail criteria.
Links to downloadable calibration-check spreadsheets on Brookfield's website are provided to assist the user with a pass/fail decision on each instrument.
