The continuous-flow process viscometer KV100-F works on the principle of a Capillary |
|
| |
|
Viscometer with continual volume flow and measurement of pressure decrease over the |
|
| |
|
measuring capillary. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Its basic components are the driving head and the flow measuring device connected by a |
|
| |
|
spacer tube. The driving head holds a synchronous motor with change gear. The |
|
| |
|
immersion-type measuring unit holds a gear pump, the intake fitting and the exchangeable |
|
| |
|
measuring capillary, as well as ducts for the supply of the process pressure and for the |
|
| |
|
transport of overpressure from the entrance of the measuring capillary to the connections |
|
| |
|
of pressure transducers. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The gear pump, which is driven by the driving head through a shaft via magnetic coupling |
|
| |
|
at constant speed, continually takes a constant volume flow from the process medium and |
|
| |
|
feeds it through the measuring capillary as a steady flow.
| |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The pressure decrease between the two ends of the measuring capillary, which is |
|
| |
|
proportional to viscosity, is determined by two pressure transducers P1 and P2. The |
|
| |
|
signal transducer transforms the measuring signal into standard electrical signals 0...10 V. |
|
| |
|
It can be used for display and as a control signal. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Screwed to the measuring device is a flow cell, which encloses the aspiration tube, |
|
| |
|
measuring capillary and pump housing. So these parts are directly in the process medium |
|
| |
|
positioned and temperature-controlled by this. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The flow measuring device is designed for use in the main or the secondary flow with low |
|
| |
|
operating pressures. The inlet of the aspiration tube is always located within the |
|
| |
|
representative substance flow. |
