(ATS RheoSystems: Bordentown, NJ) -- The Merlin Viscometer is a high-performance rotational viscometer capable of both steady shear and yield stress testing in a rugged, compact footprint.

Designed for performing both routine rheological tests such as single-point viscosity checks for quality control, to complex rheological evaluation for research and development, the Merlin Viscometer is ideal for investigating the mixing, stirring, and process-flow characteristics of fluid systems.

The unit comes standard with built-in Peltier temperature control for all measuring systems. Cone and plate, parallel plate, and concentric cylinder measuring systems are included.

The measuring systems employ novel “quick capture” mounting technology. The gapping mechanism is highly accurate and user adjustable.

The Merlin has an angular velocity range of 0.01–200 rad/s, a torque range of 0.005–20 mNm, and a temperature range of -10°C to 120° C.
