Pressure-Flow Viscosity Measurement Device

The pressure flow viscometer calculates viscosity by measuring the time it takes for fluids such as coatings to pass through a standard orifice under constant pressure. It is used for on-site rapid detection of fluid flow properties in industries like inks and plastics, guiding adjustments in production processes.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the viscosity range of the material being tested with the instrument's measurement range, and choose corrosion-resistant flow channels based on sample characteristics. In environments with significant temperature fluctuations, a temperature-controlled model should be selected. The orifice plate specifications must comply with industry standards, and the operation interface should be simple and easy to read.
