Achieve precise, reliable viscosity measurements with Anton Paar's temperature control solutions for the ViscoQC series. The PTD 80, PTD 175, PTD 100 Cone-Plate, and ETD 300 offer integrated, liquid-free temperature control directly managed via the ViscoQC interface. Features like the T-Ready™ function ensure accurate sample temperature before measurement, enhancing repeatability and efficiency. The integrated digital levelling sensors guarantee constant correct alignment of the system, preventing tilt-related stress, for long-term performance. Whether for small sample volumes or high-temperature applications, these devices streamline workflows and deliver consistent results.
