Gardco Offers New byko-visc CP Cone & Plate Viscometers

Accurate, Repeatable, and Technologically Advanced Line of Precision Viscometers powered by Direct Drive Technology

Paul N. Gardner Company, USA (GARDCO) – worldwide distributors, producers, and designers of quality physical and inspection instruments for the paint, coatings, and related industries – announces their new offering, the byko-visc CP Cone & Plate Viscometers.

The new line, designed and manufactured by BYK-Gardner USA, make a significant stride in their commitment to quality and precision and include both high-temperature and low-temperature units, each backed by Lite firmware options. They feature a robust direct drive motor as well as an electronic cone lift, ensuring precise and consistent results every time. The byko-visc CP Cone and Plate viscometers require only small sample volumes and can apply high shear rates in a defined measurement geometry, providing absolute viscosity values for comparable and reproducible results.

The new product line includes byko-visc CP L (5-75°C), byko-visc CP H (50-235°C) along with fixed speed models byko-visc CP Lite L, byko-visc CP Lite H, additional cones and feature an intuitive, easy-to-use interface. These models are a welcome addition to the viscometers offered at Gardco.com.

Features

• Fixed cone geometries allow for absolute viscosity determination.
• Built-in temperature control - eliminates the need for additional thermal systems.
• Small (<2 mL) sample sizes save material and reduce cleaning time.
• Precise shear rates powered by a robust direct drive motor, ideal for non-Newtonian samples.
• Versatile shear measurement for both high and low shear applications with a single instrument.
• Quick cone switching without the need for recalibration.
• Bayonet coupling for easy and secure cone attachment

What sets the new byko-visc CP Cone & Plate Viscometers apart from the competition? It’s the exceptional quality, design, engineering, and craftsmanship behind every unit. These technologically advanced instruments offer accuracy, repeatability, intuitive operation, and ease of use.
