Kinematic Viscosity Bath

• The Viscosity Bath is designed to simplify ASTM D 445; IS-1206 kinematic viscosity testing. A top-mounted controller keypad permits quick entry of bath set point temperature while a sophisticated microprocessor PID Auto tuned controller controls the bath heating and stirring through flange top mounted motorized pump cum stirrer. To further enhance the input, the unit accommodates up to a maximum of six individual capillaries. The HVB features a measuring range of 5ºC to 200ºC and can be used with mineral oil, silicone oil, or water as the bath base media. Bath temperature is displayed on a bright, easy-to-read digital display. In addition, the unit features a built-in over-temperature circuit protection.
Features:
• Accommodates up to six capillary tubes; optional Cannon-Fenske or Canon- Menin tube holders available • Measures kinematic viscosity of petroleum products/any oils at temperatures from 20ºC to 150ºC, according to ASTM D 445; IP 71 ; DIN 51562 ; ISO 3104 ; IS-1206 • Controls bath temperature with ±0.01ºC stability & resolution of ±o.1°C • Digital bath temperature measurement and display • Large capacity bath with built-in stirrer cum PUMP, & illumination by Daylight CFL fluorescent tube • Integral over-temperature protection through SSR. • SS Ball Valve provided for ease of Drain.
The unit has a double walled construction with outer GI /MS powder coat finish & argon welded inner of SS 304, having glass wool insulation between the walls. A motorized Pump with Stirrer is provided for better temperature uniformity. Toughened glass window from both sides with fluorescent tube for easy visualization. The SS immersion heater (Hot + COLD Zone Type) does the heating. PID Auto tuned Microprocessor based Digital temperature controller cum indicator controls the process temperature. Cooling of bath is achieved by CFC free hermetically sealed Compressor & direct copper tubing inside the inner area for fast & accurate cooling.
