- Accurate Elevated Temperature Testing: The Thermosel allows precise control of sample temperatures up to +300°C, ensuring stable, reproducible results, even for difficult-to-measure materials.
- Small Sample Volume with Temperature Control: The small sample volume insulated sample chamber reduces temperature gradients, resulting in more consistent data. The rotating spindle acts as a built-in stirring device, further improving accuracy.
- Programmable Temperature Controller: Offers single or up to 10 programmable set points for automated temperature control. Temperature ramping between set points is also available when used with RheocalcT software.
- Magnetic Coupling Option: Available with an optional magnetic spindle coupling system that allows quick attachment and removal of spindles, helping to prevent damage and streamline operation.
- Disposable Sample Chambers and Spindles: For materials that are difficult to clean, the Thermosel supports disposable sample chambers and spindles (SC4-27D), ideal for asphalt or other sticky substances.
