The CAP 2000+ offers variable speed, allowing it to operate between . Its primary advantage is integrated temperature control, enabling measurements at specific temperatures between ambient (or lower) and up to 235°C, depending on the model. Key Features: Variable Speed: 5 to 1000 RPM. Cone and Plate Geometry: Small sample volume required.

Before diving into the specifics, you must understand the model variants, as the manual differs depending on your serial number and model year. According to the official literature, instruments with a serial number prefix of “” use a different manual than those with the newer “ CPN ” prefix.
Features a built-in thermoelectric (Peltier) cooling/heating plate. This allows precise temperature control from 5°C to 75°C (L Series) or 50°C to 235°C (H Series).
: The instrument must stand on a flat, vibration-free surface. Adjust the feet until the spirit bubble centers perfectly. Cone and Plate Geometry: Small sample volume required
Regular maintenance is essential for accurate, reproducible data.
Set the desired temperature via the controller and allow the unit to stabilize.
While daily verification can be done in-house using standard oils, the manual recommends returning the unit to an authorized AMETEK Brookfield service center annually for full mechanical inspection and calibration certification. complete operational guidelines
Cones supplied with a new instrument are calibrated at the factory before shipment. However, you should still perform a verification check before using the instrument for the first time.
Regularly calibrate your CAP 2000+ using certified Brookfield viscosity standards to maintain accuracy.
