Features

* High Measurement Accuracy
Tuning-fork Vibration Method turns into reality for excellent repeatability of 1% of reading for viscosity measurement by Sine-wave Vibro Viscometer SV-10 / SV-100.

* Selectable Wide Measurement Range

Sample with Low viscosity to high viscosity can be measured without changing the sensor plates, so a wide range of measurements can be made continuously.SV-10: 0.3 – 10,000 mPa·s ( cP)   SV-100: 1000– 100,000 mPa·s ( cP)

* Real-Time Measurement

The sensor plate for the SV series is of a thin and small size, in area and in mass, making it is less influenced by the temperature change of the sample fluid and as a result the viscosity measurement tracks the change of viscosity of sample fluid.

* Temperature Measurement

It is very important to measure the temperature of the fluid correctly because the viscosity is very much dependent upon the temperature of the fluid. SV series can detect accurate temperature immediately because the fluid and the detection unit (sensor plates) with small surface area/thermal capacity reach the thermal equilibrium in only a few seconds.

* Continuous measurement

SV series, Tuning-fork Vibration Method does not cause damage to the sample fluid and allows measurement of cloud point of samples such as surface active agents and of surface/interface changes such as wettability because of its excellent feature for wide measurement range without the need to replace the sensor plates.

* Viscosity Calibration

With Viscosity Standard, viscosity calibration can be easily done. 1 point calibration or 2 points calibration is selectable in the calibration mode.

* Non-Newtonian Sample Viscosity Measurement

Thin sensor plates allow little deformation of sample texture and thus enable measurement of stable viscosity values.

* Foaming Sample Measurement

Low drive frequency of 30Hz allows measurement of foaming samples without breaking minute foams and with less influence scattering larger foams.

* Flowing Sample Measurement

Even the viscosity of flowing samples can be measured, including liquid in turbulent flow, which enables field management with identical data used at the laboratories. 

* Separated type model

SV series is composed of the Display Unit and Main Unit offering excellent placement flexibility.

* Vacuum Fluorescent Display

You can avoid unnecessary reading errors with easy-to-read, large, clear display: 13mm height for viscosity measurement and 11mm height for temperature measurement.

* Small Sample Size

Standard sample cup requires the sample fluid of just more than 35 ml so you do not need to waste too much sample fluid.

* Easy Cleaning

Due to the simple structure, the SUS 304 Stainless steel sensor plates and temperature sensor (all gold plated) and SUS 304 stainless steel protector can be easily and quickly cleaned.

* Sol and Gel Measurement

Sol and Gel sample fluid like a starch can be measured during the change of material characteristic.

* Standard RS-232C Interface

The RS-232C comes standard for your PC or Printer connectivity and the connection cable (25 pin – 9 pin) is also standard accessory for your convenience.

* Data Collection And Graphing Software

WinCT-Viscosity (RsVisco) is software to import the measured data of viscosity and temperature to a PC and display graphically the changes in real-time for your analysis.

Details

^Measument Principle for SV series The SV series has of 2 thin sensor plates that are driven with electromagnetic force at the same frequency by vibrating at constant sine-wave vibration in reverse phase like a tuning- fork. The electromagnetic drive controls the vibration of the sensor plates to keep in constant amplitude. The driving electric current, which is exciting force, will be detected as the magnitude of viscidity produced between the sensor plates and the sample fluid.		^Sensor Unit Corrosive-resistant gold-plate sensor plate and temperature sensor. It is very important to measure the temperature of the fluid correctly because the viscosity is very much dependent upon the temperature of the fluid. SV series can detect accurate temperature immediately because the fluid and the detection unit (sensor plates) with small surface area/thermal capacity reach the thermal equilibrium in only a few seconds. SV series, Tuning-fork Vibration Method does not cause damage to the sample fluid and allows measurement of cloud point of samples such as surface active agents and of surface/interface changes such as wettability because of its excellent feature for wide measurement range without the need to replace the sensor plates.
^Display Unit You can avoid unnecessary reading errors with easy-to-read, large, clear display: 13mm height for viscosity measurement and 11mm height for temperature measurement.		^WinCT-Viscosity WinCT-Viscosity (RsVisco) is software to import the measurements of viscosity and temperature from SV series to a PC automatically and display the measurement result by graph on real-time basis. The scaling function and the logarithm display is selectable in the function. Saving the measurement data by “CSV” file and opening it with the WinCT-Viscosity is very easy and convenient for your analysis of your sample fluid viscosity
		<Water Jacket Our water jacket (AX-SV-37) (sold separately) used in conjunction with a commercially available constant heat water tank to heat the circulating system, ensures that the sample remains at a constant temperature and that the temperature can be changed for viscosity measurement. (A small sample container AX-SV-34 and a glass container AX-SV-35 are available, sold separately.)
