Overview
Fungilab CV006-005 is a U-Tube Reverse Flow Capillary Viscometer, model U-Tube Reverse Flow BS/IP/RF size 5, with a viscosity measurement range of 60~ 300cSt. The instrument is designed based on the principle of capillary tubing viscosity determination and is suitable for accurate measurement of liquid viscosity in a variety of industries.
Features
1. U-tube countercurrent design, conforming to BS/IP/RF standards
2. Accurate viscosity measurement range 60~ 300cSt
3. Suitable for viscosity determination of various liquid samples
4. Simple structure and easy operation
Principle
At a certain temperature, when the liquid flows in an upright capillary tubing in a state of completely wetting 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, and 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. Prepare the sample to be tested
4. Time measurement of specimen outflow from the same Capillary Viscometer
5. Measurement time based on the kinematic viscosity of the sample
Notice
• Make sure the liquid completely wetting the capillary wall
Maintain a constant measurement temperature
• Viscometers need to be cleaned and dried before use
• Strictly follow the operation steps for measurement
• Be careful to choose the appropriate Viscometer model to match the sample viscosity range
