VTE Electric Viscosel

Product Description

The VTE® includes viscosity indication and control in one complete package and is widely used on line in the printing and coatings industries for automatic addition of solvents. The new look and easier-to-use controls makes the VTE Electric Viscosel a modern, economical option for in-line viscosity control.

Features And Benefits

Convenient & Inexpensive

Viscosity measurement and control combined in one compact package that mounts easily to process equipment on the production floor. Operating method uses the well-accepted coaxial cylinder principle of viscosity measurement.

Responsive

The Viscosel®'s sensitive response and automatic operation assures continuous conditioning of fluid.

Measures In-line

Eliminates time constraints associated with viscosity analysis of grab samples in the laboratory; provides early detection and correction of in-process deviations from desired set points.

Quality Control

Decreases raw material and product waste; maintains control of desirable product qualities (coating thickness, ink printability, % solids, etc.)

Easy to Clean

Only the measuring cylinder and sample chamber come in contact with the sample. They can be easily cleaned or - if necessary - replaced without re-calibration.

Easy to Change Range

Measuring cylinders hook on and off easily, without tools and without need to adjust the instrument.

Standard or Custom Mounting

Using the standard mount, the Viscosel® can be moved wherever and whenever required. Custom bracket, cart, and tank mounts are available.

±1% Accuracy Full Scale

The Viscosel® is guaranteed to be accurate within ±1% of the range in use and reproducible to ±0.5% of full scale range.

Repeatability

Repeatability to ±0.2% of full scale range

All the Advantages of Digital Electronics:

• Integral viscosity controller with relay output
• Continuous linear output signal (4-20 mA)
• Easy-to-read digital display in % torque or engineering units
• Multiple speeds (increases measurement range)

Precise Viscosity Measurement

The VTE Electric Viscosel delivers highly accurate readings with a resolution of 0.1 cP, making it ideal for analyzing oils, paints, chemicals, and more. Its rapid sampling and selectable spindle speeds adapt to diverse laboratory and industrial testing requirements.


Smart Control and Data Management

Equipped with a microprocessor-based control system and digital LED display, the Viscosel ensures user-friendly operations. Internal memory stores the last display value, while analog output and an RS232 interface support data integration and transfer.


Robust and Safe Design

Crafted with a mild steel body and IP 22 protection, the device is built for durability and safety in demanding environments. The audio/visual alarm system and bench-top mounting provide operational reliability and secure usage in labs or production areas.
