INTRODUCTION
HOLLAND
SENSOR
INNOVATIONS
has
developed
an
innovative
technology
for
the
accurate
measurement
of
viscosity
for
multiple
applications.
The
technique
used
in
the
ViscoProbe,
sets
us
apart
from
other
viscometer
manufacturers.
This
new
measurement
principle
is
based
on
an
improvement
of
the
well-known
and
experienced
vibrating
rod
at
resonance
frequency.
Through
this
new
principle,
it
is
now
possible
to
measure
accurate
viscosity,
density and temperature without frequent calibration or maintenance.
PATENTED TECHNOLOGY
HOLLAND
SENSOR
INNOVATIONS
uses
a
unique
patented
technology
for
the
sensor
which
has
already
been
proven
for
more
than
30
years
for
the
measurement
of
viscosity
in
various
industries,
fluids
and
viscosities.
In
this
way,
we
can
ensure
that
every
ViscoProbe
we
sell
is
the
most
accurate
and
reliable
in
the
world.
The
design
is
made
by
the
best
developers
and
designers
in
the
world,
who
earned
their
credits
with several international design awards and patents.
RELIABILITY & ACCURACY
The
ViscoProbe
can
measure
the
actual
dynamic
and
kinematic
viscosity
in
the
range
of
0-25
or
0-50
cSt
or
any
other
range
on
request.
The
ViscoProbe
has
been
designed
to
deliver
maximal
precision.
Because
the
rod
displacement
is
high
and
fully
digitally
controlled,
vibrations
have
no
effect
whatsoever.
The
ViscoProbe
has
the
highest absolute maximum ratings in its field.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The
measuring
principle
of
the
ViscoProbe
is
based
on
an
oscillating
rod
inside
the
flow
of
the
fluid.
The
shear
tension
of
the
fluid
will
damp
the
amplitude
of
the
rod.
The
magnitude
of
the
damping
is
a
direct
function
to
viscosity.
The
rod
is
fully
controlled
by
a
100Mhz
micro-controller
that
results
in
300
viscosity,
density
and
temperature measurements per second.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
The
ViscoProbe
is
especially
designed
to
make
operation
and
installation
very
Easy.
The
system
has
no
moving
parts
or
sensitive
piezo
with
limited
lifetime.
The
sensor
is
calibrated
off-factory
and
never
needs
to
be
re-
calibrated.
STANDARD DESIGN
The
digital
viscosity
&
density
measurement
system
is
designed
for
full
flow,
in-line
installation
in
heavy
fuel
oil
and
other
industrial
applications.
The
electronics
is
placed
in
an
ultra-robust
die-cast
enclosure,
withstanding
the
harshest
environments
in
marine
applications.
The
sensor
comprises
an
oscillating
rod,
connected
to
the
electronic enclosure by a 4m cable. The housing has standard flanges for installation.
