Field Portable ViscoMeter

Flow-through viscometers calculate viscosity by measuring the time or pressure difference for a fluid to flow through a known aperture under gravity or pressure. They are used to detect the flow characteristics of liquids such as coatings and inks in pipelines or containers, guiding adjustments in production processes and quality control.
Selection
When selecting, consider the viscosity range of the material being tested, shear rate requirements, and sample size. Choose an appropriate measurement system based on material characteristics, such as capillary systems for Newtonian fluids and rotational systems for non-Newtonian fluids. Pay attention to temperature control accuracy and material compatibility.
