BROOKFIELD _ WHY MEASURE VISCOSITY IN-LINE Why measure viscosity in-line? Why Measure Viscosity In-Line? Why Choose Brookfield? Practical application of viscosity measurement data often leads to the need for in-process control of viscosity. The installation of viscosity control equipment on a process can provide a level of control achievable by no other means. Variations in viscosity are detected and corrected instantly before they can negatively affect product quality. Real-time viscosity control can reduce downtime and material waste by ensuring that the process is operating within its...

BROOKFIELD _ PROCESS VISCOMETERS AST-100 Viscosity Controller ™ the compact AST-100 is the world’s most innovative means of viscosity control The AST-100 is a versatile instrument that is excellent for customers who are looking for viscosity control (i.e. maintaining the viscosity of the product) in their process more than the measurement of an exact number (for example, 23.5 cP). It is easy to install, cleans-in-place, and has no moving parts, so maintenance is minimal. With available options it is suitable for explosion-proof applications or 3A food-grade applications as well. No moving...
