111-N125500 GEL TIMER GT300 PLUS WITH PELTIER (+15 to + 60°C) with programmer
The measuring head of the GT300 PLUS has the same characteristics as the GT300 PLUS viscometer.
Like this one, it can be used alone or with the Visco RM software.
When it is controlled by a computer, the choice of the most judicious method is a constant speed measurement followed by the evolution of the viscosity as a function of time (see instructions for use of the software for programming).
This will determine the inflection point when the reaction of your product begins.
Using the GT300 PLUS without the software only provides the time when the maximum torque of the instrument is reached.
Since it is an automatic shutdown, no recording or reading of the result will be possible.
It is therefore best to use it with the software.
When using the GT300 PLUS with or without software, the measurement will stop automatically when the maximum torque of the measuring head is reached.
Manual Mode enables to choose your measurement parameters like «Measuring System », « Speed » then « Time of measurement ».
Auto mode allows you to select pre-recorded programs. Select the program from the list and click "Start" to start your measurement.
The display automatically adjusts to show the current measurement.
At the end of measurement, instrument will ask you to save or print (if printer is connected).
Remote Mode
This mode enables to drive GT300 PLUS by external VISCO RM software, supplied on option.

GEL TIMER GT 300 PLUS is the solution to works from 0.05 to 30 mNm
Unlimited number of speeds between 0.3 and 1500 rpm
Regarding the choice of rotation speed, the ideal range is between 0.5 and 20 rpm.
Too slow a speed at the beginning of the measurement can cause problems of too low torques and a too fast speed of the couples too high when the reaction of your product accelerates.
The choice of speed will depend on the kinetics of your product.
