With the rapid development of the petroleum industry, the requirements for the accuracy and efficiency of oil viscosity determination are constantly increasing. In order to meet this demand, Huinuo has launched the SNB-1+L0 digital display rotary viscometer, which has been widely used in the oil industry due to its high efficiency and accuracy.

Product Introduction

The SNB-1+L0 Digital Rotary Viscometer is a digital measuring tool designed to detect the viscosity of liquids. It uses a continuously variable speed system (continuously variable speed controlled rotational speed) with ultra-low viscosity adapter, which can accurately measure samples with a wide viscosity range of 1~600,000 mPa·s.

Product features include:Real-time display of viscosity, speed, percentage meter torque and other information;It can be equipped with a variety of rotors such as L0#, L1#, L2# to meet the needs of different viscosity samples;The measurement accuracy can reach ±0.5%F.S., and the error is small and stable;It is suitable for viscosity determination of liquid samples such as fuel oil and lubricating oil.


Practical application examples

In the oil industry, the main application areas of the SNB-1+L0 digital rotary viscometer include viscosity determination of liquid products such as fuel oil, lubricating oil, synthetic oils, etc. The following are its advantages and specific performance in practical applications.

(1) Efficient and fast measurement

SNB-1+L0 can quickly adjust the speed range (1~60rpm) through the continuously variable speed system, ensuring short measurement time and high efficiency. This feature is particularly suitable for continuous viscosity determination of a large number of samples in industrial production lines or laboratories.

(2) Suitable for low viscosity samples

Conventional viscometers often do not provide accurate readings when measuring very low viscosities (e.g. below 1cp), but the SNB-1+L0 is equipped with an ultra-low viscosity adapter to accurately measure samples up to 1cp. This makes it a reliable tool for measuring high-precision, low-viscosity oils.

(3) Easy to operate

The product has a friendly human-computer interaction interface, which can be easily mastered by the operator without complex training. In addition, the sample placement volume is only 25~30mL, which reduces sampling time and cost.

(4) High repeatability and stability

The measurement accuracy of SNB-1+L0 can reach ±0.5%F.S., and various performance indicators (such as temperature, speed, etc.) can be displayed and adjusted in real time. This high stability and accuracy make it an important role in the development and optimization of oil performance.
