Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about Herzog's HVU Series Automated Viscometers, specifically models HVU 481 and HVU 482, designed for kinematic viscosity testing of various liquid petroleum products, including aviation turbine fuels, lubricants, and used oils. These viscometers automate testing while adhering to ASTM and ISO standards.

Specifications:
  • HVU 481: Operates within a temperature range of 20º to 150ºC, suitable for high and low-temperature lubricant testing. It features stand-alone operation, dual-capillary measurements, and an automatic cleaning system.
  • HVU 482: Operates from -40º to +100ºC, ideal for low-temperature aviation turbine fuel testing. It also supports dual-capillary measurements and automatic cleaning.

Methods and Standards: The viscometers comply with ASTM D 445, D 446, D 2270, IP 71 Sections 1 & 2, and ISO 3104/3105 standards, ensuring precise and reliable viscosity measurements.

Features:
  • Automated, economical dual-capillary viscosity measurements.
  • Ultra-precise NIR or NTC meniscus detection systems.
  • PC-based control with HLIS® software for enhanced data management and multi-instrument networking.
  • Programmable, multi-solvent cleaning cycles with Kalrez™ seals for aggressive solvents.

Advantages:
  • Quick and precise analyses with minimal user input.
  • Rugged and reliable operation with quick tube changes and minimal maintenance.
  • Comprehensive diagnostics and calibration features for real-time status monitoring.

Accessories: The document lists various accessories, including cooling systems and HLIS software, to enhance the functionality and performance of the viscometers.

HVU 481 - AUTOMATIC KINEMATIC UBBELOHDE VISCOSIMETER-1

A COMPANY APPLICATIONS: METHODS: ASTM D 445 ASTM D 446 ASTM D 2270 IP 71 Sections 1 & 2 ISO 3104 ISO 3105 Viscosity LIQUID PETROLEUM PRODUCTS AVIATION TURBINE FUELS WATER-CONTAINING EMULSIONS LUBRICANTS USED OILS POLYMERS RESIDUES Automate kinematic viscosity testing while meeting or exceeding ASTM D 445 requirements. Herzog’s HVU Series offers truly stand-alone operation with exceptional bath temperature range and stability. It simultaneously tests up to two samples using standard Ubbelohde-style capillary tubes. Near-infrared (NIR) or NTC thermal meniscus detection systems precisely measure flow properties of even the most challenging sample types, while an automatic tube cleaning system incorporates Kalrez™ seals to withstand use of aggressive solvents such as toluene or acetone. Complete cycle time, including automated cleaning, is 30 to 40 minutes. Results can be exported immediately or on-demand to a printer or LIMS. Add the powerful Herzog Laboratory Information System (HLIS®) Windows-based software for enhanced operation and data management. HVU Series Automated Viscometers ADVANTAGES: Economical, automated dual-capillary viscosity measurements Strict accordance to standard methods Ultra precise NIR or NTC meniscus detection Stand alone operation Multi-instrument networking & enhanced PC-based operation with HLIS HVU 481: 20º to 150ºC (68 to 302ºF) HVU 482: -40º to +100ºC (-40 to +212ºF)
