Features and Benefits
Attaches to process using a single M18 pressure port or flange mounting
Effective solution for online viscosity or melt index monitoring
No waste stream, tested sample is returned to process
Online ASTM D1238 melt flow rate, ISO 1133, or JIS K 7210
Online apparent and intrinsic viscosities
Interchangeable capillaries
Compact measuring head for close extruder connection
Simple “in the field” calibration
2 Vertex Mercury Free Pressure Transducers for high accuracy
Platinum RTD melt temperature sensor immersed in molten stream for accurate test temperature measurement
Description
Experience the benefits of online rheology measurement.
Specifically designed for the thermoplastics resin industry, the ViscoSensor provides continuous measurements of the melt flow rate or apparent viscosity directly on the manufacturing process.
The ViscoSensor system consists of two parts: a Viscosensor Rheologic Sensing Unit (RSU), connected directly to the process, and a Rheologic Control Unit that controls the Viscosensor test parameters (temperature, pressure, rate), provides outputs of computed results, and provides communications to an external distributed control system when required.
