V.3 Data Gathering

Brookfield offers applications software for comprehensive data gathering with any IBM compatible

PC.
Brookfield software will capture and display the following data in tabular and/or graphical

format when used with the appropriate Brookfield Viscometer.

- Viscosity in centipoise (cP) or milliPascal seconds (mPa•s)

- % scale (Brookfield units)

- RPM

- Shear rate (sec

-1

)

- Shear stress (dynes/cm

2

or N/m

2

)

- Temperature (°F or °C)

The data from a Brookfield dial reading, DV-E or DV-I+ (or DV-I) Viscometer can be manually

entered into one of our software applications.
In addition, the Brookfield Strip Chart Recorder (Model 1201) can be used to obtain a permanent

record of the Viscometer/Rheometer torque signal output, as shown in Figure 3. The Model

1202 can be used to record a second parameter, such as temperature, at the same time.

Contact Brookfield or an authorized dealer for more details on the appropriate software to use

with your viscometer/rheometer.
