Introduction: The TT-200 Viscometer is flange mounted for use on mixing/blending/storage tanks or in pipe lines using a “T” fitting. The viscosity measurement range and operating shear rate are designed with Brookfield’s assistance to suit specific applications such as the 511 sec-1 required by the API standards. The standard viscometer has a single speed/single shear rate drive. Optionally available with a variable speed motor for variable shear rate requirements or pilot plant applications involving different materials with a broad range of viscosities. Features: Defined shear means agreement with Brookfield Laboratory measurements at equivalent shear rates Shear Rates 10-1,000 sec-1 Capable of pressures up to 500 psi (34 bar) and temperatures up to 500°F (260°C) Continuous measurement eliminates need for “Grab” sampling and allows for prediction and constant control of final product properties Concentric cylinders provide defined shear measurement 4-20mA output signal provides a variety of display and control capabilities Flange mountable directly into tank or in pipeline tee Can be operated at shear rates of 511 sec-1 for American Petroleum Institute (API) measurement needs Rugged 300 series s/s construction Repeatable to ±.5% of full scale range Available with explosion proof class 1, Div. 1 and 2, Group D design Optional 12V or 24V DC operation Technical Parameters: Flange 4″ or larger, ASA 150#, 300# or 600# Wetted parts are stainless steel type 316 Pressure rating of 200 (14 bar) or 500 (35 bar) psi Minimum viscosity 15 cP (mPa·s) Maximum viscosity 200,000 cP (mPa·s) Electrical code NEMA 4 (water and dust tight for indoor or outdoor use) or NEMA 7 (explosion proof) Input power: 115 Vac, 230 Vac, 24 Vdc
