Checks Consistency, Viscosity or Flow Rate Standards
The Consistomer is manufactured from stainless steel engraved with a series of precise graduations at 0.5 cm intervals. The sample is initially retained in a reservoir behind a spring loaded gate prior to testing. Method Of Use A measured sample, usually 75 ml, is placed in the reservoir behind the gate. (Fig.1) The gate is released, by pressing the lock release lever, while the spring action ensures it opens instantaneously. (Fig.2) As the fluid flows down the instrument its progress can be accurately measured using the graduated scale. By comparing the flow rate to specified time periods the physical properties of the sample can be calculated. (Fig.3) To ensure accurate reproducibility the instrument is levelled using the adjustment screws and spirit level.
The Consistometer takes up little bench space but offers a precise and accurate method of checking Consistency, Viscosity or Flow Rate Standards. |
