The reaction torque of the rotor to the liquid in the cellis measured and used to calculated viscosity. Several models ofthe TBS Viscometer are in use (see Annex A1 for informationand pictures of l

All TBS models are capable ofanalyzing test oils at temperatures from 40 C to 200 C, butearlier models were more limited in their upper viscosity range.6.1.1 The stator enclosed within its insulated housing is heldimmobile while the motor and the connected rotor are setabove and within

Later models (2100 E, and 2100 EF) havebeen equipped to operate at multiple speeds which allow theoperator to produ
