Funnel-Type Viscosity Meter

The funnel-type viscometer reflects viscosity by measuring the time required for fluid to flow out of a standard funnel. Its function is to provide a rapid viscosity assessment for fluids such as coatings and inks. It is applied in on-site quality control in industries such as printing and papermaking.
Selection
Match the funnel aperture according to the viscosity range of the measured fluid; select stainless steel or plastic material based on fluid characteristics; choose a temperature control device when constant temperature control is needed; determine the funnel wear resistance requirements based on the frequency of use; confirm the need for a calibration certificate according to standard methods.
