Koehler™ Instrument KV5000 Kinematic Viscosity Bath

Provides automatic viscosity measurements of petroleum and petrochemical products

Supplier:  Koehler™ Instrument K23798OS

Catalog No. 13-626-107

Description

Kinematic viscosity is of primary importance in the design and selection of a wide range of petroleum products. Calibrated capillary viscometers are used to measure flow under gravity or vacuum at precisely controlled temperatures.

• With Optical Flow Detection System
• Includes communication and power ports for each optical detection assembly; can utilize up to five optical assemblies (K23780 series)
• Two additional positions are available for manual viscosity measurements; all positions can be used in manual mode
• Modular design of three types of optical assemblies allows interchangeable use of any combination and size of Cannon™-Fenske, Reverse Flow, and Ubbelohde tubes in viscosity baths
• Integrated automatic timing on LCD microcomputer with optical sensors automatically measures sample efflux times
• Automatic calculation and display of results in viscosity units or seconds
• Bath Medium: water or suitable heat transfer fluid
• Thermometers sold separately
