Viscosity Test Cup features internal timing pins.

Press Release Summary:



Designed to measure laminar flow, efflux test cup is suited for use with hot fluids. Cup enables user to dip device into any fluid up to 50,000 cps and measure time it takes for fluid to drain from pin-to-pin. It is available with several different hole sizes to correspond with various viscosity ranges. Manufactured with brass and stainless steel, cup includes brass chain to permit measurements under pipes and equipment.

Viscosity Test Cup Features Internal Timing Pins



A new efflux test cup for performing high viscosity fluid measurements in order to preset a process controller and validate its operation is being introduced by Norcross Corporation of Newton, Massachusetts.

The Norcross Cup is an efflux test cup designed for manually measuring the viscosity of hotter, thicker fluids than conventional Zahn or Shell cups. Featuring internal timing pins, a user simply dips the cup into any fluid up to 50,000 cps, regardless of temperature, and then measures the time it takes for the fluid to drain from pin-to-pin, rather than from the bottom.

Measuring laminar flow instead of the turbulent or transitional flow out
the cup's bottom, the Norcross Cup is available with several different hole sizes to correspond with various viscosity ranges. Suitable for use with hot fluids, it is made of brass and stainless steel, and has a brass chain to permit measurements in awkward positions under pipes and equipment.

The Norcross Cup sells for $299.95 (list). Literature is available upon request.
