About SAY Bolt Viscometer

SAY Bolt Viscometer

Say bolt Viscometer, Electrically Heated, ASTM D88, D244, AASHTO T72 for the empirical measurement of Say bolt Viscosity of petroleum products at specified temperatures between 70o F and 210o F. This is also used for determining the Saybolt Furol Viscosity of bituminous materials at temperatures of 250, 275, 300, 350, 400 and 450 F. It comprises one each of cylindrical Oil cup, Universal Tip, Furol Tip, Bath Fitted with immersion Heater mounted on a stand. Dimmer stat for temperature control, Stirrer with shield. Complete with insulated handle and thermometer support receiving flask, withdrawal tube, filter funnel, thermometer support for cup and circular spirit level. Suitable for operation on 230 V 50 Hz, Single Phase, A.C.

Superior Insulation and Safety

With its double wall insulated heating bath, this viscometer ensures uniform temperature distribution and energy efficiency. Integrated thermal fuse and over-temperature protection safeguard users and maintain device integrity, making it safe for continuous laboratory use.

Precise Digital Timing Mechanism

The built-in digital timer functions up to 999.9 seconds and offers 0.1 second resolution, allowing for highly accurate measurements. Easy manual operation and clear display make it effortless to control test durations for consistent viscosity readings.

Robust Construction and Easy Cleaning

The powder coated metal exterior resists corrosion, while the internal drainage system ensures hassle-free maintenance and cleaning. The combination of stainless steel chamber and brass cup with nickel plating promises durability and longevity, even under frequent use.

FAQs of SAY Bolt Viscometer:

Q: How does the SAY Bolt Viscometer determine viscosity of petroleum products?

A: The viscometer measures flow time of a fixed oil volume through a standard orifice under regulated temperature, as specified by ASTM D88. Using the digital timer and mechanical stirring, it provides precise viscosity readings.

Q: What are the safety features incorporated in the viscometer?

A: This instrument includes a thermal fuse and over-temperature protection, ensuring user safety by automatically shutting off or limiting heat if unsafe conditions are detected.

Q: When should the universal or Furol jet be used during testing?

A: Choice of jet depends on sample characteristics: the universal jet suits lighter oils, while the Furol jet is meant for more viscous petroleum products, as outlined in ASTM D88 protocols.

Q: Where is the SAY Bolt Viscometer typically installed or used?

A: It is commonly used in laboratories, research facilities, and quality control departments across oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and academic institutions throughout India.

Q: What is the process for cleaning after a test?

A: The drainage valve allows for easy removal of used samples and washing of internal components, helping maintain hygiene and readiness for subsequent tests.

Q: What are the benefits of the digital timer in manual operation?

A: The digital timer facilitates precise measurement, reduces human error, and ensures consistency in test results, critical for compliance with ASTM D88 standards.

Q: How is the temperature regulated during operation?

A: Temperature is manually controlled using the integrated thermometer and insulated heating bath, maintaining accurate and stable test conditions from ambient to 150C.
