CAP 1000/2000 High Shear Rate Viscometers The CAP Viscometer was originally designed to provide a high shear rate test for paints and coatings that simulates material behavior in rolling, brushing, and spraying applications. The versatility of the CAP design makes it a practical tool for any QC or R&D lab requiring quick easy testing of materials, regardless, of application, at high shear rates. Applications include paints, resins, foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, dispersions, coatings, and inks. Shear rates from 166 sec-1 to 26,600 sec-1 Variable shear rate (CAP 2000) Cone and plate geometry Small sample size (less than 1 ml) Automatic cone gap positioning Automatic viscosity range calibration Rapid sample temperature control on plate surface Digital settings and display (CGS or SI units) PC control with RS-232 serial interface (CAP 2000) using Brookfield Capcalc software Parallel printer interface to document data Timed test capability Sample number identification Easy test set up and clean up Rapid test performance Two temperature ranges: 5°C to 75°C OR 50°C to 200°C NIST traceable viscosity standards available Choice of one cone spindle supplied with viscometer (extras available) CAP1000 is a single speed viscometer: 900 rpm at 60 Hz or 750 rpm at 50 Hz CAP2000 is a variable speed viscometer: 50 to 2000 rpm in 1 rpm steps Cone Spindle Range Table Cone Spindle No. Cone Angle Shear Rate (sec-1) Full-Scale Viscosity Range (Poise) Sample Size (µl) CAP 1000 at 750 RPM CAP 1000 at 900 RPM CAP 2000 at 50-2000 RPM 01 02 03 04 05 06 0.45° 0.45° 0.45° 1.8° 1.8° 1.8° 13.3N 13.3N 13.3N 3.3N 3.3N 3.3N .25-.25 .5-5.0 1.0-10.0 2.0-20.0 4.0-40.0 10.0-100.0 0.21-2.08 0.42-4.17 0.83-8.33 1.67-16.7 3.33-33.3 8.33-83.3 0.1-37.5 0.2-75.0 0.4-150.0 0.8-300.0 1.6-600.0 3.8-1500.0 67 38 24 134 67 30 N=RPM Standard Fluids
