Abstract
A rotational rheometer or viscometer has a measuring motor for driving a measuring shaft which carries a measuring system, particularly a measuring head supported by a shaft portion, which may be contacted with a substance to be examined. Measuring data are introduced into the calculation of the properties, particularly the viscosity, of the substance. The measuring system has a characteristic identification with data referring to its properties, such as the geometry, the type, and/or the construction of the measuring head. An encoder module enables contactless reading the information. The data transmission path between the measuring system and the uptake or receiver unit has at least one section where the data may be transmitted wirelessly or over an air transmission path or air main path.
