Features & Benefits

  • Conforms to 3A sanitary conditions and has clean-in-place (CIP) design

  • Continuous measurement eliminates need for "Grab" sampling and allows for prediction and constant control of final product properties

  • Concentric cylinder geometry (Couette type) provides viscosity measurments at defined shear conditions

  • Defined shear means agreement with Brookfield Laboratory measurements at equivalent shear rates

  • Constant or variable speed motors available

  • 4-20 mA output signal provides a variety of display and control capabilities

  • Capable of a wide range of pressures, temperatures, viscosities, flow and shear rates

  • Measurement "Zone" is protected from main flow, allowing accurate, repeatable measurement under variable conditions

  • Mounts in-line supported by connections: Available in 3" or 4" pipeline connections; sanitary, threaded or flanged

  • Easy to check and maintain calibration

  • "Explosion Proof" configurations available for operation in hazardous environments

Applications:

  • Low Viscosity: Adhesives, solvent based Chemicals, Juices, Dairy Products, Oils, Petroleum Products, Paints, Inks, Coatings, Pharmaceuticals, Polymers

  • Medium Viscosity: Adhesives, waxes, hot melts, Asphalt, Ceramic Slurries, Drilling Fluids, Food Products, Gums, Resins, Inks, screen printing, Paper Coatings, Starches

  • High Viscosity: Caulking Compounds, Epoxies, Gels, Sealants, Inks, offset & lithographic

Options:

  • Explosion-proof FM and Atex approved design

  • Standard design with flanged connections

  • Variable speed motor

  • Computer controlled variable speed viscometer

The STT-100® In-Line Viscometer is designed to provide years of trouble-free service in closed loop systems which require constant monitoring and associated control of product viscosity. This instrument is 3A approved and has been used successfully in many food applications.
