SRD - INLINE PROCESS DENSITY METER WITH VISCOSITY - MUD MONIOTORING

Product catalog summary
Specifications:
The SRD device offers multiple output options including analog, digital, and wireless outputs such as 4-20 mA (3 channel), Modbus RTU (RS-485), Ethernet, USB, and Bluetooth LE 4.0. It is designed for simultaneous density and viscosity monitoring in various fluids, with a process fluid temperature range of -40 to 200 °C and pressure capability up to 5000 psi. The wetted parts are made of 316L stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to harsh environments. The device supports a viscosity range of 1 to 3000 cP with accuracy options, and a density range of 0.4 to 4.0 g/cc with high precision.

Operating Principle:
The SRD measures viscosity and density using a torsional resonator. The resonator's damping and resonant frequency are used to calculate these properties through proprietary algorithms. The device is hermetically sealed, providing mechanical isolation and stability across a range of temperatures and fluid properties.

Applications:
The SRD is suitable for a wide range of applications including real-time control of drilling mud, electrolyte density checks in batteries, monitoring raw material quality, and quality assurance in ink and coating processes. It is also used in the food and beverage industry for concentration monitoring and in biofuel and petroleum sectors for distinguishing between raw materials and products.

Mechanical & Electrical Features:
The device offers flexible installation options with various process connections such as NPT, flange, and tri-clamp. It supports both onsite and remote electronics installation, with options for rugged displays. The electronics are housed in a compact form factor, supporting Ethernet and optional Wi-Fi connectivity.

Ordering Information:
The SRD can be customized with various options for viscosity and density ranges, calibration accuracy, electronics housing, communication interfaces, temperature, and pressure ratings. Accessories include sensor cables and mounting brackets.

Contact Information:
Rheonics GmbH, Switzerland and Rheonics Inc., USA provide global support and service for the SRD device.

SRD - INLINE PROCESS DENSITY METER WITH VISCOSITY - MUD MONIOTORING-2

INLINE PROCESS DENSITY METER AND VISCOMETER Operating principle The rheonics SRD measures viscosity and density by means of a torsional resonator, the finned end of which is immersed in the fluid under test. The more viscous the fluid, the higher the mechanical damping of the resonator, and the denser the fluid, the lower its resonant frequency. From the damping and resonant frequency, the density and viscosity may be calculated by means of Low viscosity High viscosity rheonics' proprietary algorithms. Thanks to rheonics' symmetric resonator design (US patent number 9267872), the transducer is isolated...
