Visgage
Any company using quantities of lubricating oils, turbine oils, or hydraulic oils should have a Visgage.The Visgage / Visgauge is the most useful instrument ever devised to aid in viscosity and analysis testing of new and used oil. Use Visgage to check any oil from a light spindle oil to heavy gear oils.
As well, specially modified Visgage viscosity testing instruments can
analyze fire-resistant hydraulic fluids and water glycol.
The operation principle: Based on comparison of speed of SS
ball through a tubular path of sample oil to that of a reference oil at
different cSt level.
Testing time : 2 minutes
Accuracy : >95% (depending on human reaction time).
Below are the visgage brand and models that we supply:
BRAND: Louis C Eitzen Co Inc, USA
Model 38
The Model 38 is best for oils from approximately 8 to 160 CST. This Visgages are calibrated at room temperature but give the equivalent Centistokes reading @ 40°C.
Model 76
The Model 76 is best for oils from approximately 80 to 300 CST. This Visgages are calibrated at room temperature but give the equivalent Centistokes reading @ 40°C.
