Perfecting Compressor Refrigerant-Oil Balance

Perfecting Compressor Refrigerant-Oil Balance

Boston - Too much lubricant and the compressor does not cool properly; but too much refrigerant and the compressor's life is shortened by bearing wear, according to a senior engineer at a major North American compressor manufacturer. We use Cambridge viscometers to help find the right balance for each of our products. The ability to mount these viscometers directly in our test compressors cannot...

Controlling Viscosity for Uniform Fine Wire Coating

Controlling Viscosity for Uniform Fine Wire Coating

Boston-How do you control coating on wire that is finer than a human hair? This is the challenge faced by manufacturers of 30 - 300 micron diameter wire known as winding wire, magnet wire or fine wire. These wires are key components in electric motors, transformers and electric coils required in appliances, cars and other powered devices. Viscosity control is critical for enamel quality The...

RheoSense Inc. Has Introduced Its NEW VROC®-D Chip

A New MEMS-Based Paradigm for Liquid Flow Management Now Measure Viscosity to 1,000,000 1/s! The NEW D chip expands the measurement ranges offered by existing chips to high shear rate viscosity measurements. Many industry processes involve very high shear rate deformation in material processing, shear rate easily exceeding 10,000 1/s (reciprocal second). And the viscosity depends on shear rate...

Viscometer measures from 0.3-10,000 cp.

Viscometer measures from 0.3-10,000 cp.

Intended for use with Zetasizer Nano particle characterization systems, Vibro Model SV-10 determines viscosity by measuring current required by electromagnetic drive to vibrate 2 gold paddles immersed in sample at constant amplitude. It takes 15 sec to stabilize, after which continuous reading of viscosity is produced. With 1% accuracy across measurement range, data it generates can be used to...

Vane Spindles help make difficult measurements.

Vane Spindles help make difficult measurements.

For use with company's viscometers and rheometers, vane spindles are suitable for making viscosity measurements on paste-like materials and other fluids where suspended solids typically migrate away from measurement surface of standard spindles. Vane spindles minimize disruption of sample during spindle immersion. In fluids with suspended particles, rotational motion of vane spindles help keep...
