B1051 Saybolt Viscosity Bath 4-Tube


ASTM D88, D244, E102; AASHTO T72

The test method determines the time required for 60ml of sample to flow through a calibrated orifice under precisely controlled conditions. Saybolt Universal Seconds (SUS) is the standard measurement for lubricants, insulating oils and lighter fuel grades, and Saybolt Furol Seconds (SFS) is used for heavier oils and bitumens.

The following outstanding features are offered:

  • Microprocessor control of temperature between ambient and 240°C (464°F)
  • Four tube capacity
  • Dual digital displays show setpoint and actual temperature
  • Selectable temperature scale - Celsius or Fahrenheit
  • Automatic timing option for simplified, accurate measurement of efflux times
Designed for Saybolt Universal and Furol viscosity testing, this new constant temperature bath meets all ASTM and AASHTO requirements for precise temperature control. The microprocessor PID circuitry assures accurate temperature control within ASTM tolerances throughout the range of ambient to 464°F (240°C). Simple push-button controls and dual digital displays are used for easy setting and monitoring of the bath temperature.

With a capacity of up to 4 viscosity tubes and 60ml receiving flasks, the bath features sliding draft shields, chemical resistant alignment plates for handling of flasks and a glare-free flourescent backlight for easy viewing of test sample. The insulated bath interior is constructed entirely of heavy-gage stainless steel and the built-in overflow pipe and drain valve simplifies filling the bath oil to the required level. A chemical resistant top plate provides insulation and is easily removed to allow for cleaning of the bath interior.

Automatic Timing Option - At the push of a button, the automatic timer starts the sample flow, senses the 60ml end point, and digitally records and displays the efflux time in 0.1 seconds resolution with an accuracy of 0.05%. Automatic timing improves testing accuracy and convenience, eliminating the chain and cork assembly and the need to manually time each sample. Timer installation is available in any configuration from 1 to 4 positions. B1052 includes power supply board, cable and wiring harness for user or factory installation of up to four (4) B1055 Automatic Saybolt Viscosity Timing Sensors.

The bath is supplied complete with four thermometer supports, four port covers, four chained corks, two port closures, tube nut wrench, orifice wrench, withdrawal tube and oil strainer. Viscometer tubes, orifices, receiving flasks, oil and thermometers are not included and must be ordered separately. Communications software (RS232, etc.) ramp-to-set, and other enhanced features are available at additional cost. Standard voltage requirements are 115 VAC 50/60 HZ; for 220-240 VAC, specify B1051-3.
Shipping Weight: 82 lb (37kg); 10 cu. ft.

 

B1052 Saybolt Viscosity Bath for Automatic timers

Each of the 4 ports will accept one sensor (B1055) for automatic timing operation.

 

B1055 Automatic Saybolt Viscosity Timing Sensor

One to four sensors can be used with B1052. User or factory installation is available. Older versions of B1051 can be retrofitted. Please request information.  

 

Saybolt Tubes and Accessories

A brass or stainless viscosity tube must be used with universal or furol orifices which are stainless steel. The furol orifice is usually used when testing bituminous materials. Thermometers should be selected from ASTM listing under related item B1301C.
