VISCOSITY METER

The term viscosity typically refers to shear viscosity, However, a fluid's viscosity also may be measured based on stretching. The technical term to refer to this is extensional viscosity.

A viscosity meter is frequently used in laboratories, but it also has practical applications in factories and other industrial environments. A viscosity meter can be an important component in process and quality control.

VDTC offers a variety of handheld, portable, benchtop and in-process, real-time viscometer products that measure the absolute / dynamic and kinematic viscosity of fluids. Handheld or portable viscosity meter devices allow users to take simple, single-point measurements in the field and in the lab. Benchtop or stationary viscometer devices are complex measuring systems that allow for a more detailed examination of liquid samples.

CENTRIFUGE METER

A centrifuge meter is a machine that uses centrifugal force to separate the contents of a sample based on their density. When the centrifuge spins, it creates a strong centrifugal force. There are many types of centrifuges, varying by intended use and rotor design. A wide variety of laboratory-scale centrifuges are used in chemistry, biology, biochemistry and clinical medicine for isolating and separating suspensions and immiscible liquids. They vary widely in speed, capacity, temperature control, and other characteristics. Laboratory centrifuges often can accept a range of different fixed-angle and swinging bucket rotors able to carry different numbers of centrifuge tubes and rated for specific maximum speeds.
