The Viscoline inline process rheometer provides continuous measurement of fluid viscosity for process control and monitoring applications. No mechanical process modification is required for accurate viscosity measurements, says the company. It uses technology based on mixing principles applied to pipes. Bulk viscosity is measured on the whole fluid flow, which is re-homogenized by the action of in-line static mixers. It has stainless steel construction, no moving parts and no in-situ calibration required. It features continuous measurement with analog or digital outputs. The unit features repeatability of 0.2%, resolution to 0.1cP while meeting government policy on metrological traceability.
