VISCOMETER CLEANING AND DRYING APPARATUS-ASTM D445

Compliance Standards:

ASTM D445

Salient Features:

1. Cleans up to 6 tubes simultaneously
2. Heated solvent vapor process
3. 5 to 15 minute cleaning time
4. Low solvent loss

Details on functioning of the equipment:

1. The Viscometer Tube Cleaner is a fast and efficient instrument that will clean all current types of viscometer tube internally and externally.
2. Up to six viscometer tubes can be suspended in the cleaning chamber. 
3. 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.
4. 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. 
5. The use of a low temperature re-circulator (Supplied at extra cost) to chill the cooling water will improve the solvent recovery rate.
