PCE-RVI 1 Analogue Dial Reading
Viscometer / Viscosity Meter
|
|
Rotational viscosity measuring device ideal
for Newtonian fluids
|
|
|
|
PCE-RVI 1 is an analogue viscometer or dial
reading viscometer used in industrial and research
|
|
applications to measure the viscosity of
fluids such as paints, lacquers, inks, pastes, adhesives, plastics,
|
|
greases
and liquid food products. Under identical conditions, test results from an
analogue
viscometer
|
|
are as
accurate and reproducible as results from a digital viscometer. Thus, the
PCE-RVI 1 analogue
|
|
viscometer offers an affordable solution for
viscosity measurement during product and material testing,
|
|
development,
production and quality control.
|
|
|
|
Basic operation
|
|
Prepare the liquid to be
measured and put it into a glass beaker or a right angle container with a
diameter
|
|
no smaller than 70 mm and a
height no smaller than 130 mm. Adjust the lifting screw and put the spindle
into
|
|
the liquid until the level mark on the spindle reaches
the liquid's surface. Connect the power supply, turn on
|
|
the equipment, screw the speed knob, select the
velocity and relax the pointer joystick. When selecting a
|
|
rotational speed of 6 or 12 rpm, the final measurement value may be
read when the pointer becomes stable.
|
|
When selcting
30 or 60 rpm, press the pointer joystick after pointer becoming stable, cut
power supply,
|
|
then read the final measurement value.
|
|
|
|
Offering an
adjustable rotational speed, this portable analogue viscometer:
|
|
- Provides a coefficient
table on top of the motor housing for on-the-spot calculations of absolute
viscosity
|
|
- Uses
electric power to maintain a constant speed of either 6, 12, 30 or 60
revolutions per minute (rpm)
|
|
- Features a
built-in level and adjustable feet to ensure measurement precision
|
|
- Includes
four different rotors or spindles (spec. 1, 2, 3 and 4)
|
|
- Comes with a
protective wooden carrying case
