Abstract:
Kinematic and Saybolt Viscosity are the current analytical methods in the oil and lubricant laboratories for measuring viscosity. These laboratories are a fast-paced, highly-focused environment with too few people accomplishing an abundance of quality work with out-dated equipment. Typical Viscosity measurements are slow, labor intensive, high maintenance, and prone to user variables. Too few organizations employ true ‘next-gen’ technologies that make the workflow smoother, provide accurate and reproducible results, offer application expandability, and reduce laborious interaction of instrumentation by their over-worked staff. “What if” an oil and lubricants lab come employ true ‘next generation’ instrumentation that is fast, efficient, produced quality reproducible data in a fraction of the time with minimal labor requirements? “What if” this same technology provided better temperature control, full spectra reporting of viscosity and temperature profiles, plus offered the flexibility to adjust parameters to meet changing or customer demands? Introducing the Rapid Visco Analyzer from PerkinElmer! But first, let’s talk tech.
