VISCOMETER CLEANING AND DRYING APPARATUS-ASTM D445

Compliance Standards:

ASTM D445

Salient Features:

• Cleans up to 6 tubes simultaneously
• Heated solvent vapor process
• 5 to 15 minute cleaning time
• Low solvent loss

Details on functioning of the equipment

• The Viscometer Tube Cleaner is a fast and efficient instrument that will clean all current types of viscometer tube internally and externally.
• Up to six viscometer tubes can be suspended in the cleaning chamber. 
• Solvent vapours, heated to 80°C, permeate the viscometer tubes, condensing on the internal and external surfaces, dissolving any residues from samples passed through the tube during a test.
• A water fed cooling coil at the top of the chamber causes the vapor to continually condense and return to the receiver, minimizing solvent loss. 
• The use of a low temperature re-circulator (Supplied at extra cost) to chill the cooling water will improve the solvent recovery rate
