SVT 25
Spinning Drop Video Tensiometer
The Spinning drop video tensiometer SVT 25 is a compact optical measuring instrument for the determination of low to ultra-low interfacial tensions and rheological interface properties. Ultra-low interfacial tensions occur particularly in microemulsions which are used, for example, in enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
Highest precision and reproducibility of the measuring results is guaranteed by a well-established measuring technique and first grade mechanical and optical components. Due to state of the art electronic components the SVT 25 can be operated intuitively via the TP 50 control panel.

For an efficient measuring procedure the measuring cell, with the rotating capillary, is mounted on a tilting table, which allows the operator to easily move the drop of interest into the camera view. The fast 6.5-fold zoom lens with fine focus enables an analysis of small and large drops alike.
Temperatures within the range of -30 °C to 180 °C can be reached inside the temperature controlled measuring cells to simulate real working environments. With a specially designed capillary and a resulting higher pressure tolerance, the SVT 25 instrument can even be used with water-based solutions at up to 130 °C.
