Description:

Liquid viscosity is an important process parameter in applications as diverse as pipeline drag reducer injection, pump protection, turbine correction and fuel oil burner control. In many cases these processes require measurement of multiple variables including viscosity, density and temperature – all of which need to be fast-response and online. Process conditions and the liquid itself can make measurements challenging, whether it be due to high process temperatures and vibration levels or limited installation accessibility. 

With Emerson’s Micro Motion Fork Viscosity Meter you get a fast-response, direct insertion multi-variable sensor that is capable of viscosity, density and temperature measurement in pipelines, bypass loops and tanks. The meter incorporates an innovative new integral transmitter that has extensive communications flexibility and can be factory pre-configured to your specific application, reducing your system integration and set-up costs. Maintenance burdens can also be minimized through a revolutionary new meter health diagnostic – Known Density Verification (KDV).
