In line viscosity control system
VT-G130 Marimex Industries Corp.

The ViscoTron VT-G130 transmitter uses digital technology to directly drive the ViscoTron sensor. A high powered processor enables the use of an algorithm with tight frequency control, which at the same time follows and controls the sensor behaviour. This technology eliminates influence from external mechanical vibrations at the source instead of masking them with a filter later. Internal storage and data capture allows the system to be used for remote data collection.

The VT-G120 transmitter is compatible with our new generation ViscoTron VP-1000, VP-2000 and VP-3000 transducers as well as the reinvented ViscoScope VP-300 transducer. Calibration of a viscometer system with the ViscoTron transmitter VT-G130 is independent of cable length.

For general purpose applications the transmitter can be integrated into the sensor housing of the VP-1000, VP-2000 and VP-3000 transducers. For applications with high process temperatures panel mount, wall mount and DIN Rail mount housings are available. They can either be mounted close to the sensor, eliminating the need to use long specialized cables or up to 300 meters away.

If the sensor is located in hazardous areas, safety barriers are used to establish ATEX approval. For these applications the transmitter can be mounted together with the barriers in an explosion proof housing or up to 300 meters away from the sensor. The available approval rating for a complete system with safety barriers is: ATEX: II 1/2 G EEx ia IIC T3 - T6.
