Flow Cups Model 243 – ERICHSEN

Optimized Viscosity Measurement with ERICHSEN Flow Cups

ERICHSEN’s viscosity cups offer a rapid and straightforward solution for measuring fluid consistency in both laboratory settings and production processes. Designed specifically for materials with lower viscosities, they are not intended for highly viscous substances such as pastes. These cups provide the most accurate results for fluids that conform to Newton’s Law, establishing a benchmark for ease of use and precision in viscosity measurement.

Durable Design and Precise Manufacturing

Constructed from anodised aluminium with stainless steel nozzles for most models, the Model 243/I stands out by utilizing durable phenolic resin while maintaining a stainless steel nozzle. This design ensures reliability and longevity, even in demanding industrial environments. The unique structure of the ERICHSEN Flow Cups, with a hollow cylinder terminating in a precise nozzle, ensures efficient operation and accurate measurements.

Simple yet Effective Measurement Principle

The measurement of viscosity is determined by the time it takes for a controlled volume of fluid to flow through the cup’s nozzle. Following a detailed test procedure ensures the delivery of comparable, reproducible results, emphasising the importance of temperature control throughout the testing process. The thorough standardisation and calibration of these cups for specific ranges and flow times underscore their reliability.

Comprehensive Care and Maintenance

ERICHSEN emphasizes the importance of regular maintenance, specifically the careful cleaning of the nozzle to ensure consistent performance and accuracy. The Model 243/I is particularly noted for its ease of care, ensuring long-term, reliable measurements.
