Cambridge Viscosity’s Model SPC/L301 is an in-line process viscometer that measures process fluids to provide continuous temperature and viscosity tracking. Our unique technology is based on a simple and reliable electromagnetic concept. Two coils move a piston back and forth magnetically at a constant force. Proprietary circuitry analyzes the piston’s two-way travel time to measure absolute viscosity.
A deflector, positioned over the piston, moves fluid into the measurement chamber. This feature, coupled with the constant piston motion, keeps the sample fresh and mechanically scrubs the chamber. A built-in temperature detector (RTD) senses actual temperature in the measurement chamber.
The Model SPC/L301 viscometer has a 1 1/4” NPT thread to easily install into a process line using a “Tee”, or into a large tank or pipe, using a weld ferrule.
Measurements can be made in 13 different 20:1 viscosity ranges within an overall span of 0.2 to 20,000 cP or the equivalent cSt. Maximum flow rate over the sensor head is 10ft/sec (3 m/sec).
