Overview
Fungilab CV006-108 is a Capillary Viscometer with a U-tube BS/U specification H-shaped design for the measurement of liquid kinematic viscosity in the range 2000-10000cSt.
Features
1. U-tube BS/U specification design, covering a specific viscosity range
2. Based on the principle of capillary tubing viscosity measurement, high accuracy
3. Suitable for a variety of industries and scientific research fields
Principle
At a certain temperature, when the liquid flows in an upright capillary tubing in a state of complete wetting of the tube wall, its kinematic viscosity is proportional to the flow time. When measuring, use a liquid with known kinematic viscosity as a standard, measure the time it takes to flow out of the Capillary Viscometer, and then measure the time it takes for the sample to flow out of the same Viscometer to calculate the viscosity of the sample.
Applications
Petroleum, chemical industry, light industry, electromechanical, national defense, transportation, coal, metallurgy, food, paper, Spinning & weaving, scientific research, institutions of higher learning
Steps
1. Prepare a standard liquid with known kinematic viscosity
2. Time measurement of standard liquid from Capillary Viscometer
3. Measurement of sample outflow time from the same Viscometer
4. Calculate the kinematic viscosity of the sample according to the flow time
Notice
• Make sure the liquid completely wetting the capillary wall
• Control the temperature during the measurement process
• Viscometer calibrated before use
• Follow standard operating procedures to ensure accuracy
