Product catalog summary
Description
The Thermoset-KV is an online analyzer designed for continuous measurement of kinematic viscosity at a reference temperature. It utilizes vibration at resonance frequency technology, with a vibrating rod that adjusts its amplitude and frequency based on dynamic viscosity and density, respectively. The analyzer calculates real-time kinematic viscosity using a flow-cell where the product flows along the sensor.

Thermoset-KV (kinematic viscosity) analyser at reference temperature-1

THERMOSET- KV PRELIMINARY BROCHURE DESCRIPTION The Thermoset-KV (Kinematic Viscosity) is an online analyzer designed to continuously measure kinematic viscosity at reference temperature. The measurement principle is based on the vibration at resonance frequency technology developed by Sofraser in 1981. The active part of the measurement is a vibrating rod driven by constant electrical power. The amplitude of the vibration varies according to dynamic viscosity and the frequency varies according to density. The analyzer uses a flow-cell in which the product flows along the sensor described above. Using the combined dynamic viscosity and density measurement, the electronic panel calculates real time kinematic viscosity of the product By adjusting coolant temperature of the flow-cell, the end-user can select the reference temperature.
