Enhanced UL Adapter™

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Enhanced UL Adapter by Brookfield is designed for precise viscosity measurements of low viscosity materials, compatible with standard Brookfield Viscometers and DV3T Rheometers. It is particularly effective for Newtonian and non-Newtonian materials, offering a measuring range as low as 1 cP.
Specifications: The adapter features a cylindrical geometry for accurate shear rate analysis, a small sample size requirement of 16 mL, and a working temperature range from 1°C to 65°C. It includes stainless steel parts for easy cleaning and a removable low-density polyethylene cap.
Components Included: The package includes a locating channel assembly, a spindle with a universal coupling nut, a collar assembly with a thumbwheel, a water jacket, a chamber tube, and a package of six tube end caps.
Optional Accessories: An EZ-Lock spindle coupling and closed tube and spindle made from 316 stainless steel are available as optional accessories.
Design Features: The adapter's design allows for quick and easy attachment and removal, saving time during setup and testing. The sturdy collar ensures proper alignment, and the universal coupling nut provides a firm connection and self-centering of the spindle.
Benefits: The unique design facilitates rapid testing of multiple samples, direct immersion in temperature baths, and easy insertion of the sample chamber. The EZ-Lock option enhances compatibility with existing equipment.

Enhanced UL Adapter™-1

BROOKFIELD LABORATORY VISCOMETER ACCESSORIES ideal for low viscosity materials Reduces measuring range to as low as 1 cP, depending on viscometer used Simple attachment to a standard Brookfield Viscometer or DV3T Rheometer Small sample size: 16 mL Cylindrical geometry provides defined shear rates for detailed product analysis Removable cap of low density polyethylene can be considered disposable for one-time use if required Stainless steel parts are easily cleaned What's Included? Locating Channel Assembly Spindle (304 s/s) with universal coupling nut Collar assembly with thumbwheel Water Jacket Chamber Tube Tube End Caps (package of 6) Closed Tube and Spindle made from 316 s/s The Brookfield Enhanced UL Adapter is used with any standard Brookfield Viscometer and Rheometer to make accurate and reproducible measurements on low viscosity materials. Newtonian and non-Newtonian materials can be measured. It is most commonly used with the LV series instrument (at 60 rpm, these models have a full scale range of 1-10 cP with the UL Adapter). The UL Adapter consists of a precision cylindrical spindle rotating inside an accurately machined tube. Its rheologically correct cylindrical geometry provides extremely accurate viscosity measurements and shear rate determinations. The tube has a removable end cap which allows the open ended tube to be used in a beaker or tank. With the cap in place, the closed tube can be immersed in a temperature bath or used with the ULA-40Y water jacket for precise temperature control. Working temperature range is from 1°C to 65°C. Use Closed Tubes for higher temperature requirements
