Automatic Kinematic Viscometer
Viscosity is defined as the rate of a fluid’s internal resistance to the force that is required to flow. Intermolecular force, molecular mass and temperature of a fluid is considered as the three main factors effecting the viscosity. Fluids such as water, air, oil etc. that have directly proportional flow rate with friction resistance are called as Newtonian fluids. Best method to measure viscosity of Newtonian fluids is by using capillary viscometers. With capillary viscometers, viscosity is determined based on the flow time of a fluid which is kept at a specific temperature inside a capillary with known diameter and length. Viscol-10 Series, fully-automatic kinematic viscometers, equipped by the latest temperature control, detector, chronometer and washing specifications with different models for oil, fuel, bitumen, polymer, paper, food and similar industrial demands. Viscol-10 Series viscometers provide the most reliable results for research, development and quality control practices without any user intervention.
