A1009 Automatic Kinematic Viscometer (Straight Tube Type)
The A1009 Automatic Kinematic Viscometer is a high-precision laboratory instrument designed for the fully automatic determination of kinematic viscosity of petroleum products, lubricating oils, diesel, transformer oils, and transparent liquids.
Built in accordance with GB/T 265, ASTM D445, and ASTM D446, the system adopts modern microelectronic control technology with PLC intelligent control as the core. It features a 10-inch touchscreen HMI, high-sensitivity photoelectric detection, automatic result calculation, and thermal printing, enabling fully automated sample analysis for modern petroleum laboratories.
Key Features
- High-precision temperature sensor with excellent bath stability
- PLC industrial control for reliable automatic operation
- 16-position automatic sample feeding for batch testing
- Automatic sample preheating function
- PC and LIMS data connectivity supported
- Automatic liquid replenishment and over-temperature protection
- Peltier semiconductor cooling for rapid temperature stabilization
- 10-inch touchscreen with easy one-touch testing
Testing Principle
The A1009 measures the time required for a fixed volume of petroleum liquid to flow through a calibrated glass capillary viscometer under gravity at a constant temperature. The measured flow time is then multiplied by the viscometer constant to obtain the kinematic viscosity value in mm²/s, fully compliant with ASTM D445 and ASTM D446 standard methods.
