2. Chemical industry (polymer solutions, solvents, resin solutions, latex dispersions, adhesive solutions)
3. Cosmetic/Pharmaceutical industry (raw materials, glycerine, emulsions, suspensions, solutions, extracts)
4. Petroleum industry (light crude, machine oil, crude petroleum)
5. Fuels (petrol, diesel oil, paraffin)
6. Paper industry (emulsions, pigment dispersion, paper additives)
7. Paints and varnishes (printing inks, varnishes, water lacquers, inks)
8. Detergents (liquid washing agents, washing-up liquids, tenside solutions)
Features
1. High accuracy through improved visibility of falling ball.
2. Easy to operate
3. Minimized test time due to accurate return run of the ball.
4. No external influences on the sample as it is hermetically sealed in a tube during the measurement.
5. Different measuring range depending on ball diameters.
