Description
M&W
MPA.S
VISCOSITY METER
RANGE: 0 – 50
01-7
4…20 MA
1.5
The M&W viscosity meter is a measuring instrument with a range of 0-50 mPa.s and a 4-20 mA output. It belongs to shipboard control system instrumentation, where it reports fluid viscosity as an analogue current signal. Instruments of this type are commonly used in fuel oil treatment, where viscosity determines how far heavy fuel must be heated before it reaches the engine. The unit also carries the markings 01-7 and 1.5. It is offered in used condition.
