STT-100 In-Line Viscometer
For In-Line System Applications
Product Description
The STT-100® In-Line Viscometer is designed to provide years of trouble-free service in closed loop systems which require constant monitoring and associated control of product viscosity. This instrument is 3A approved and has been used successfully in many food applications.
Features And Benefits
- Conforms to 3A sanitary conditions and has clean-in-place (CIP) design
- Continuous measurement eliminates need for "Grab" sampling and allows for prediction and constant control of final product properties
- Concentric cylinder geometry (Couette type) provides viscosity measurments at defined shear conditions
- Defined shear means agreement with Brookfield Laboratory measurements at equivalent shear rates
- Constant or variable speed motors available
- 4-20 mA output signal provides a variety of display and control capabilities
- Capable of a wide range of pressures, temperatures, viscosities, flow and shear rates
- Measurement "Zone" is protected from main flow, allowing accurate, repeatable measurement under variable conditions
- Mounts in-line supported by connections: Available in 3″ or 4″ pipeline connections; sanitary, threaded or flanged
- Easy to check and maintain calibration
- "Explosion Proof" configurations available for operation in hazardous environments
