The SBT® test measures the apparent viscosity of fresh, sooted, or highly oxidized engine oils at low temperatures. It determines the susceptibility of engine oils to flow-limited and air-binding responses during slow cooling conditions by providing continuous rheological data over a broad temperature range (+90°C to -40°C).

 Additionally, the multi-purpose Direct Cool II can be used for running the automated low-temperature viscosity test for ATF, hydraulic fluids, and gear oils per the new ASTM D2983, Procedure D technique.  The dual-position design allows operators to test two samples simultaneously, or the ability to run a reference sample alongside an unknown sample as indicated in the ASTM method.

• Thermoelectric Module Cooling (TMC) eliminates flammable bath mediums.
• Small, Dual-position, bench-top footprint.
• Incorporates new all-digital TAV-IIIM SBT^® Viscometer model.
• SBT^® Automation Package (w/Laptop) offers the capability to operate up to four, 2-place Direct Cool II units simultaneously and independently.
• Self-contained pre-heating: Heats samples up to 90°C prior to prescribed cooling profile.
• Programmable Temperature Controller maintains bath temperature within ±0.1°C to -40°C.
• Universal Power capability (110—240VAC, 50/60 Hz)
• Internal automatic dry air system removes moisture that accumulates during the test.
• Built-in touchscreen for easy-access temperature control settings and bath operations.
