For Low Viscosity In-Line System Applications
Model KV100 is a user-friendly capillary viscometer which operates excellent in rough process
environments, on downgraded set-ups at pilot plants, as well as under semi-laboratory conditions.
The KV100 Capillary Viscometer easily measures low and medium viscosity materials. Based on the
principle that the pressure decrease between the two ends of the measuring capillary is proportional
to viscosity a permanent control signal is determined.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
·Continuous measurement eliminates need for "Grab" sampling and allows for prediction and constant
control of final product properties
·The gear pump forced internal sample flow via magnet coupling keeps the instrument resistant to
pressure and temperature
·4-20 mA output signal provides a variety of display and control capabilities
·Sample transport by aspiration tube into the viscometer creates bypass situation where measurement
"Zone" is protected from main flow, allowing accurate, repeatable measurement under variable
conditions
·Availability of various standard viscosity ranges up to 500 mPas (cP); customized ranges on
request
·Display device for measuring data including calculation options
