AMETEK GMBH - BU BROOKFIELD

For over 80 years, AMETEK Brookfield has been the world's leading manufacturer of viscometers and rheometers for laboratory applications as well as for online process control. However, the reputation of Brookfield viscometers is not only based on excellent scientific methodology. When you use a Brookfield device, you join the ranks of many thousands of people who have made it the global standard for viscosity measurement. There are more Brookfield viscometers used in industry worldwide than any other type of viscometer. Your partners, suppliers, or customers may own a Brookfield device. Many association and industry specifications describe the application of a Brookfield viscometer. Laboratory viscometers and rheometers include both dial reading (analog viscometers) and models with digital displays, some of which are programmable. The online process viscometers include probe specifications for in-tank, in-line, and flow models. All Brookfield viscometers utilize the well-known principle of rotational viscometry, meaning they measure viscosity by determining the torque required to rotate a spindle at a constant speed while it is immersed in a liquid. The torque is proportional to the viscous drag resistance on the immersed spindle and thus simultaneously to the viscosity of the liquid.
