OCA 15EC
The OCA 15EC is the entry level measuring device for professional contact angle measurements and drop shape analysis. The sample table of the OCA 15EC can slide freely in X- and Y-direction and is locked into position with its switchable magnetic base. In Z-direction the sample table is adjustable using precision mechanics with a hand wheel.

OCA 25
The OCA 25 is the all-purpose measuring device for contact angle measurements and drop shape analysis. The sample table of the OCA 25 is adjustable along all three directions in space via precision axes with hand wheels. Hence, a fast and exact manual positioning of the sample is always guaranteed, even when using high-performance temperature chambers like the electrical temperature control unit TEC 700U.

OCA 50
The OCA 50 is the fully automatic measuring device for the time-saving analysis of the wettability of solid surfaces and the determination of the surface energy of solids. The sample table of the OCA 50 can be positioned along all three directions in space via electronic high-performance axes, with both extraordinary speed and highest precision.

OCA 200
The OCA 200 is the contact angle measuring and drop contour analysis system for microscopic and macroscopic structures. The software-controlled, electrically driven optic alignment enables the OCA 200 to adjust the observation angle and to focus automatically.With the trendsetting 10-fold zoom lens and the reliable auto focus system by DataPhysics Instruments.

DCAT 8 & 9
The DCAT 8 and DCAT 9 are the powerful entry level models for the weight-based measurement of surface and interfacial tension and the density of liquids and solids. In order to measure temperature dependent properties the DCAT 8T and DCAT 9T feature an integrated digital thermometer and a liquid temperature control unit TV 70.

DCAT 15
The DCAT 15 enables additional measuring methods and hence can be used to determine dynamic contact angles, the surface energy of solids or sedimentation and penetration properties. In addition the DCAT 15 can be extended with a liquid dosing unit LDU 25 and can thus create sequential concentration series of, for example, surfactant solutions.

DCAT 25
The dynamic contact angle measuring device and tensiometer DCAT 25 is the multifunctional all-round instrument of the DCAT series. The weighing system is even more precise than that of the DCAT 9 and 15 and hence offers highest accuracy for the determination of surface and interfacial tension.

DCAT 25SF
The DCAT 25SF incorporates a weighing system of highest accuracy with a resolution of 0.1 μg which allows to measure even on single fibres. As an ideal single fibre tensiometer the DCAT 25SF is not limited to this very special purpose due to the modular design of the product line.

PCA 200
The PCA 200 portable contact angle goniometer from DataPhysics Instruments is a hand-held device for autonomous and mobile measurement of the surface energy of solid surfaces. Its lightweight design and intuitive user interface make it the ideal tool for analysing surfaces in production and quality control.

MBP 200
The MBP 200 bubble pressure tensiometer from DataPhysics Instruments is a powerful measuring device for determining the dynamic surface tension of liquid solutions. To do so, it uses the maximum bubble pressure method. The MBP 200 can direct a volume flow of gas through a capillary into a liquid, creating bubbles at the capillary opening.

SVT 25
The spinning drop video tensiometers of the SVT series are special-purpose optical instruments for measuring extremely low interfacial tensions and rheological properties. This measuring technique offers unrivalled possibilities for the analysis of surfactant effectiveness in the development of emulsions or in the enhanced oil recovery.

MultiScan MS 20
The MultiScan MS 20 is the measuring device for the automatic optical stability and aging analysis of liquid dispersions, in particular suspensions and emulsions, and the comprehensive characterisation of time- and temperature-dependent destabilisation mechanisms.

ZPA 20
The Zeta Potential Analyzer ZPA 20 uses the patented bidirectional oscillating streaming potential analysis to measure the zeta potential of fibres, powders and plate shaped solid materials. Applications that depend on the adhesion between solids, the adsorption and chemical reaction of ions/molecules, surfactants, polymers etc.

HGC 20
The humidity generators of the HGC series allow for a reliable control of the relative humidity, in the range of 5% to 90%, inside small environmental measuring chambers from DataPhysics Instruments or other suppliers. With an integrated pump and desiccant reservoir they can independently generate a dry airflow using ambient air. Together with the heated water reservoir the necessary humidity can be generated within the HGC.
