the Premier MV is a cost-effective way to perform three critical rubber and polymer tests:
• Mooney Viscosity
• Mooney Stress Relaxation
• Mooney Scorch
The enhancements and improved functionality of Premier MV mean one thing for companies who need to add a full-feature viscometer to their line-up – Premier MV gives you more bank for the buck.
How to compare Premier MV with all the others.
Superior Die Cooling and Temperature Stability – Premier MV delivers excellent temperature stability and a 45% reduction in die cooling time compared to previous models.
Multi-Speed Measurement – Controls for multiple shear rates to establish power law curve and other shear- viscosity plots.
Rotor Alignment Detection – Prevents accidental damage to the rotor and shaft by closing on an out-of-alignment rotor, and reduces time and cost required for replacing rotor and shaft.
Advanced Verification Procedures – Provides assurance that you are meeting the setpoints specified by ASTM.
Automatic Dead Weight Calibration – Allows calibration of instrument in a matter of seconds.
Standard multi-zone stress relaxation and variable speed digital motor – essential in obtaining advanced processing information such as identifying thixotropic materials.
Optional Long-Life O-Ring – keeps your instrument on the job long by reducing frequent cleaning and calibration.
Custom Electronics that are matched to the instrument. Faster. Better control. Better resolution. Other instruments use off-the-shelf PLCs to save money, but can’t fine-tune their electronics to their instrument – they often overshoot set points then spend valuable time stabilizing.
Efficient die cooling that gets your instrument ready for the next test. Why wait 20 minutes for dies to cool down when Premier instruments take about 6 minutes.
Better Heating Control. Because they are designed specifically for Premier instruments, our heating control system ramps up heating cycles faster and maintains control for more accurate cure times and more efficient production.
Always Aligned. More accurate measurements. No loss
of signal thanks to Premier’s Smart Alignment and Dynamic Symmetry. On-target, parallel die closing, high stiffness and constant closing force.
Cast Aluminum Frame. Not only are Premier frames light, but incredibly stiff for less variability. What’s more, Premier instruments incorporate frame compliance into the calibration for better data.
Control with a Personal Touch. Our incredibly intuitive user interface comes to you through a large, bright touch screen panel that lets you navigate to the view you want or the information you need.
Storage Drawer – okay… that’s a really small thing. But QA and R&D technicians love having a way to keep their workspace clear.
