The process viscometer PV100-TM64 works on the principle of a rotational viscometer
|
|
| |
|
with coaxial cylinder systeme. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Its basic components are a measuring head and a continuous-flow measuring unit |
|
| |
|
connected by a flange sleeve. The measuring head holds the drive unit, which is either a |
|
| |
|
controllable d.c. motor or a synchronous motor, as well as the torque sensor und the |
|
| |
|
electronics producing the measuring signal. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The rotation is transmitted from the measuring head over a connecting shaft to the |
|
| |
|
permanent-magnet coupling, which is located in the pressure-resistant measuring sleeve. |
|
| |
|
The magnetic field transfers the torque through the thin-walled measuring sleeve onto the |
|
| |
|
rotating measuring bob. This mesuring bob is enclosed by the measuring cup. In the |
|
| |
|
measuring sleeve and in the measuring cup, the measuring bob is held in low-friction pin |
|
| |
|
supports. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Measuring sleeve, measuring bob and measuring cup form a coaxial double gap cylinder |
|
| |
|
system. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Due to a specific design, part of the substance flow is continuously led through the
|
|
| |
|
measuring gap of the cylinder system. The viscosity-proportional torque occurring on the |
|
| |
|
measuring bob is measured in the measuring head and converted into an electric |
|
| |
|
standard current signal 4...20 mA, which can be used for display and as a control signal. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The immersion measuring device is designed for use with open containers or closed |
|
| |
|
vessels up to high operating pressures. The immersion depth of measuring system is |
|
| |
|
variable within wide limits by the length of the flange sleeve. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The process viscometer can be completed with an electronic unit for more functions of |
|
| |
|
instrument control, signal processing, as well as temperature adjustment of viscosity. |
|
