conforms to the specified voltage to maintain measurement accuracy. Handle the rotor carefully during installation and removal. Before disassembling, gently lift the connector at the lower part of the instrument. Keep the connecting parts, rotor connection end surfaces, and threads clean to ensure proper rotor connection and stable rotation.

varies with shear rate and time. Therefore, variations in results under different rotors, speeds, and times are normal and do not indicate instrument inaccuracy. When measuring non-Newtonian liquids, specify the rotor type, speed, and duration. Achieve accurate viscosity measurements by: ...
II.Over Review The upgraded Digital Rotary Viscometer features advanced mechanical design, manufacturing processes, and microcomputer control technology, ensuring precise data acquisition. Its LCD display with a blue backlight provides high brightness for clear visibility of the data. Renowned for its high measurement sensitivity and dependable test results, this viscometer offers convenient operation and an attractive design.

rotates within a liquid sample, it generates viscosity torque proportional to the liquid's viscosity. Sensors detect this torque, which is then processed by the microcomputer to calculate viscosity readings. Innovatively utilizing microcomputer technology, the instrument allows for easy adjustment of parameters such as rotor type and speed range. During measurement, it digitally processes sensor data and displays essential information such as rotor type, speed, viscosity value of the measured liquid, and percentage of the full-scale range.

V.Preparation Ensure the working area is clean and dry. Place the instrument on a level and stable workbench. Set up the workbench in a location free from vibration interference. Keep the instrument away from objects and equipment that have magnets or can generate magnetic fields.
This prevents the viscometer head from descending under its own weight. Next, insert the handle of the viscometer head into the designated round hole to maintain a level position, then secure it in place using the fixed handwheel. Remove the yellow protective cap located underneath the ...
