Options:

  • Nema 7 configuration

Features & Benefits

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

  • Shear Rates 10-1,000 sec-1

  • Capable of pressures up to 500 psi (34 bar) and temperatures up to 500°F (260°C)

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

  • Concentric cylinders provide defined shear measurement

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

  • Flange mountable directly into tank or in pipeline tee

  • Can be operated at shear rates of 511 sec-1 for American Petroleum Institute (API) measurement needs

  • Rugged 300 series s/s construction

  • Repeatable to ±.5% of full scale range

  • Available with explosion proof class 1, Div. 1 and 2, Group D design

  • Optional 12V or 24V DC operation

Applications:

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

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

  • High Viscosity: Caulking Compounds, Chocolate, Epoxies, Gels, Sealants, Inks, offset & lithographic, Molasses, Peanut Butter, Pastes, Thick Film Putty, Roofing Compounds

The TT-200 Viscometer is flange mounted for use on mixing/blending/storage tanks or in pipe lines using a "T" fitting. The viscosity measurement range and operating shear rate are designed with Brookfield's assistance to suit specific applications such as the 511 sec-1 required by the API standards.

The standard viscometer has a single speed/single shear rate drive. Optionally available with a variable speed motor for variable shear rate requirements or pilot plant applications involving different materials with a broad range of viscosities.
