FEATURES & BENEFITS 

  • Minimal disruption of sample during spindle immersion
  • Keeps particles in suspension during testing cycle
  • Viscosity data includes complete flow curve analysis
  • Provides information on yield behaviour at low rotational speeds
  • Follows industry recommendations on length/diameter ratios for vane spindles
  • 3-piece spindle set (V-71, V-72 and V-73) for versatile range capability


MAGNETIC SPINDLE COUPLING OPTION**

Vane Spindles can also available to purchase with an Magnetic Spindle Coupling Option. This option allows spindles to be quickly attached and removed, and may also help prevent against damage that can occur from frequent spindle changes or multiple users. Please contact Brookfield or an authorized dealer for additional details and part numbers. Existing Vane Spindles can also be retrofitted with a special coupling adapter. Please contact Brookfield or an authorized dealer for details and part numbers.

**Note: for use with instruments purchased with and Magnetic Spindle Coupling Option.
