Full Automatic Dual Tube Kinematic Viscosity Tester with Houillon Viscometer

Full Automatic Dual Tube Kinematic Viscosity Tester with Houillon Viscometer – ToronVT™ FA-DT Key Features

The ToronVT™ FA-DT full-automatic kinematic viscosity tester with Houillon viscometer delivers an industry-leading feature set for high-throughput, unattended petroleum viscosity testing:

• Fastest Test Speed in Class: In fast mode, the instrument returns results in as little as 15 seconds. Full test cycle time — from sample injection through result output — is generally under 3 minutes. The complete measurement sequence including cleaning does not exceed 7 minutes.
• True 24-Hour Unattended Operation: the ToronVT™ FA-DT can operate continuously for 24 hours without operator intervention. All functions (sample injection, measuring, cleaning, drying, result calculation, and repeatability analysis) are fully automated. Both viscometer tubes are independently automated, enabling simultaneous multi-sample processing.
• Broad Sample Compatibility: the instrument handles the full range of transparent and opaque Newtonian liquids, including gasoline, diesel oil, kerosene, cutting fluid, fresh lubricating oil, in-service lubricating oil, and additive solutions. This makes the ToronVT™ FA-DT the single instrument needed for most petroleum laboratory testing workflows.
• Secondary Accurate Quantification: the instrument features a secondary accurate quantification function that controls the sample liquid column precisely, eliminating the limitations and deviations associated with micro-pipette injection. This directly reduces sample dosing variability and ensures accuracy of the measurement data without manual intervention.
• Intelligent Auto-Cleaning System: the best cleaning mode is automatically selected based on the measured viscosity value. The system uses automatic double-solvent cleaning with a fast, efficient cycle that consumes no more than 10 mL of cleaning fluid per run — minimizing solvent consumption and waste.
• Intelligent Software and Automatic Sample Management: the software automatically selects the appropriate viscometer tube, distributes sample sets in an optimal test sequence, manages priority testing, and provides real-time viscosity testing. It automatically converts kinematic viscosity to Engler viscosity at any time.
• Comprehensive Auxiliary Functions: includes automatic plugging, constant calibration, temperature calibration, internal clock calibration, kinematic-to-Engler viscosity automatic conversion, software and hardware over-temperature protection with alarm function, anti-dry burning protection, and cleaning agent level and waste liquid level alarm functions.
• Double Bath Design: dual bath construction allows different temperature points to be tested and cleaned simultaneously without interference — baths can be quickly swapped without emptying the thermostat bath. Micro-automatic temperature controlling system enables low failure rate, smooth sample delivery, and small vibration.
• High-Precision Temperature Sensing: uses PT1000 high-precision temperature sensors for stable, accurate constant-temperature bath conditions. Temperature controlling accuracy reaches 0.005°C.
• LIMS Connectivity and Disposable Filters: the Windows operating system with Chinese interface, simple operation and friendly human-machine interface. The system can access LIMS via USB connection. The instrument can be equipped with disposable filters, which significantly reduces the workload of sample pretreatment.
