Viscosity Detector

A viscosity detector determines flow characteristics by measuring the internal resistance of a fluid. It uses rotating or vibrating components to sense the shear force of the fluid, converting the data into viscosity values. It is used to monitor the flow consistency of materials such as coatings and inks, ensuring uniformity in coating and printing during the production process.
Selection
When selecting a viscosity detector, it is essential to consider the type of material being tested, such as Newtonian or non-Newtonian fluids, match the measurement range and accuracy requirements, adapt to operating conditions like temperature and pressure, ensure the sensor material is corrosion-resistant, ensure compatibility of connection methods with the production line, and refer to industry standards to verify practicality.
