Description
VC plus is a timing device for capillary viscometers supplied together with a power supply rated 100-230 V and the hand pump VZ 6550. The instrument provides the timing function required for capillary viscosity measurements and is delivered as a complete ready-to-use package. With a net weight of 1,4 kg and a gross weight of 1,4 kg, the unit is suitable for standard laboratory benches. The wide-range power supply allows operation across common mains voltages, while the included VZ 6550 hand pump supports sample handling during viscometric work. Offered by manufacturer SI Analytics - a Xylem brand, the VC plus belongs to the laboratory material range and is intended for professional capillary-viscometer applications. The single-piece configuration combines the timing electronics, power adapter and hand pump so that laboratories can equip capillary viscosity stations efficiently. Its compact mass and integrated accessories make it practical for routine viscosity timing tasks in analytical and quality-control environments.

What is this article?
VC plus, Timing unit for capillary viscometer. Including power supply 100-230V is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes SI Analytics - a Xylem brand for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
