Zahn Dip Flow Cup Model 343 – ERICHSEN

Optimize Viscosity Measurements with the Zahn Dip Flow Cup

Discover the rapid and accurate method for viscosity determination across a wide range of fluids with the Erichsen Zahn Dip Flow Cup Model 343. Whether dealing with paint, varnish, wet enamel, photogravure ink, dyes, lacquers for leather, oils, fats, or foodstuffs, this tool is excellently suited for workshop environments.

Advanced Measuring Principle

The Erichsen Zahn Dip Flow Cup utilizes a straightforward yet effective approach to viscosity measurement. Viscosity is calculated based on the efflux time of a specified volume (100 ml) through an orifice of a given diameter. Use a stopwatch to capture the time it takes for the cup to empty completely, ensuring precise and consistent readings.

Simple Test Procedure for Accurate Results

For unparalleled ease of use, immerse the cup fully into the substance being measured, fill it, lift it out swiftly, and start the stopwatch simultaneously. The seconds until the cup empties mark the fluid’s viscosity, with the test concluding as the orifice clears. For accuracy, maintain the cup’s vertical position throughout the test.

What’s Included

The package includes the Zahn Flow Cup Model 343 along with Nozzle No. 1 (0.078′) complete with handle, facilitating immediate deployment in various industrial applications.
