Technical Overview: ZX-YDN Kinematic Viscosity Tester

The ZX-YDN Kinematic Viscosity Tester is a precision instrument designed for the reliable determination of the kinematic viscosity of liquid petroleum and plastic resin products. It integrates advanced digital control, sensing, and data management technologies to meet the rigorous demands of modern quality control and research laboratories.

Core Technical Capabilities

At the heart of the instrument is a high-stability temperature control system. Utilizing advanced sensors and digital PID algorithms, it achieves a precise control range from ambient temperature to 100°C with an accuracy of ±0.1°C. This stability is critical for obtaining reproducible viscosity measurements, as defined by standard test methods like ASTM D445 and ISO 3104. The heating system, powered by a 1800W element, ensures efficient and uniform thermal management within the measurement bath.

Measurement timing is handled by an integrated digital stopwatch with a range of 0.1 to 999.9 seconds, suitable for a wide spectrum of flow times. The viscometer constant, test temperature, and desired number of test runs (1-6) are user-configurable via the front-panel menu and stored in memory, streamlining repetitive testing.

Operational Features for the Technician

The tester emphasizes user-centric operation. An LCD display provides clear menu guidance and real-time data. Parameters such as viscometer constant, target temperature, and number of test cycles can be easily set and stored, facilitating method recall and ensuring consistency. A built-in calendar clock function timestamps operations, aiding in record-keeping.

All test results are automatically saved and can be reviewed directly on the device, creating a local audit trail. For enhanced laboratory connectivity, the unit is equipped with network communication capability, supporting remote monitoring and control—a key feature for automated or integrated lab environments.

Design and Specifications

Engineered for daily laboratory use, the device features a robust push-button interface designed for positive tactile feedback. It operates on a standard AC 220V ±10%, 50Hz ±5% power supply. The unit is compact (190 x 380 x 280 mm) with a manageable weight of 15 kg. Its operational environment specification (5°C to 40°C, <85% humidity) ensures performance reliability under typical laboratory conditions.

Summary

The ZX-YDN Kinematic Viscosity Tester represents a capable solution for accurate and efficient viscosity analysis. Its combination of precise PID temperature control, intuitive digital interface, configurable test parameters, and data management functions provides technicians with a reliable and modern tool for compliance testing and material characterization.
