Used Viscometers

Overview

Viscometers are instruments used to measure the viscosity of fluids, indicating their resistance to flow. They are essential in industries such as automotive, pharmaceuticals, and food processing, where precise control of fluid characteristics is crucial. Viscometers come in various types, including capillary, rotational, and falling ball, each suited for different applications and fluid types.

FAQ

What factors should I consider when buying a viscometer?

Consider the type of fluid being measured, the required accuracy, the operating temperature range, and the specific type of viscometer that best suits your application.

How do I ensure the viscometer is shipped safely?

Ensure it is packed in its original packaging or equivalent, with adequate cushioning to protect sensitive components. Use a reliable courier service that handles delicate instruments.

What is the maintenance schedule for a viscometer?

Regularly calibrate the viscometer according to the manufacturer's guidelines, clean it after each use to prevent contamination, and inspect it periodically for any signs of wear or damage.
