Measures viscosity of crude oil, lubricants, and process fluids

Description

  • High Accuracy and Precision: Delivers highly accurate and precise viscosity measurements with minimal operator influence.   
  • Wide Measurement Range: Covers a broad range of viscosities, accommodating a wide variety of liquids from low to high viscosity.   
  • Automated Measurements: Automates the entire measurement process, including sample filling, temperature control, and data acquisition.   
  • Fast Measurement Times: Provides rapid results, significantly increasing sample throughput.   
  • Integrated Density Measurement (Optional): Some models offer integrated density measurement, allowing for the direct calculation of kinematic viscosity without the need for separate density measurements.   
  • User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive software with a user-friendly interface for easy operation and data analysis.   
  • Compliance with Standards: Meets or exceeds relevant industry standards, such as ASTM and ISO.

How it Works:

  • Capillary Flow Method: The SVM series utilizes the capillary flow method, where the time taken for a fixed volume of liquid to flow through a calibrated capillary is measured.
  • Temperature Control: Precise temperature control is crucial for accurate viscosity measurements. The instruments typically incorporate advanced temperature control systems to maintain stable and accurate temperature conditions.   
  • Data Acquisition and Analysis: The instrument automatically measures the flow time and calculates the kinematic viscosity based on the measured time and the known dimensions of the capillary.   

Benefits:

  • Increased Efficiency: Automation and fast measurement times significantly increase sample throughput.  
  • Improved Accuracy and Precision: Minimizes human error and ensures consistent and reliable results. 
  • Enhanced Data Quality: Provides accurate and reliable data for quality control and research applications.
  • Reduced Labor Costs: Automates many manual tasks, reducing the need for extensive operator involvement.
