GARDCO Announces Their New Byko-Visc CP Cone and Plate Viscometers

Press release submitted on behalf of GARDCO.

Paul N. Gardner Company (GARDCO), Columbia, Maryland, worldwide distributors, producers and designers of quality physical and inspection instruments for the paint, coatings and related industries, is announcing the New byko-visc CP Cone & Plate Viscometers.

These new models, designed and manufactured by BYK-Gardner USA, will include both high-temperature and low-temperature units, each backed by Lite firmware options. They feature a robust direct drive motor as well as an electronic cone lift, ensuring precise and consistent results every time. The byko-visc CP Cone and Plate viscometers require only small sample volumes and can apply high shear rates in a defined measurement geometry, providing absolute viscosity values for comparable and reproducible results.

“Our new viscometers are equipped with direct drive technology and electrically enabled up and down controls, ensuring precise and consistent results every time” says James Fusco, product manager, Paul N. Gardner Company (GARDCO).

The new product line includes byko-visc CP L (5-75° C), byko-visc CP H (50-235° C) along with fixed speed models byko-visc CP Lite L, byko-visc CP Lite H and additional Cones. They all feature the same intuitive, easy-to-use interface.

Features:

  • Fixed cone geometries allow for absolute viscosity determination.
  • Built-in temperature control – eliminates the need for additional thermal systems.
  • Small (<2 mL) sample sizes save material and reduce cleaning time.
  • Precise shear rates powered by a robust direct drive motor, ideal for non-Newtonian samples.
  • Versatile shear measurement for both high and low shear applications with a single instrument.
  • Quick cone switching without the need for recalibration.
  • Bayonet coupling for easy and secure cone attachment

What sets the new byko-visc CP Cone & Plate Viscometers apart from the competition? It’s the exceptional quality, design, engineering and craftsmanship behind every unit. These technologically advanced instruments offer accuracy, repeatability, intuitive operation and ease of use.
