Description
VZ 8562 ViscoPump for optical detection is supplied including the connection cable specifically intended for TC viscometers. The pump module supports controlled sample transfer and capillary filling in viscosity systems that combine optical detection with temperature-controlled (TC) Ubbelohde or related measuring tubes. Delivered as a single unit with a net weight of 1,17 kg, it provides the fluidic drive needed for automated or semi-automated viscosity sequences while remaining compact for laboratory benches. The dedicated cable interface ensures straightforward electrical and signal connection to compatible TC viscometer stands, reducing setup complexity. From manufacturer SI Analytics – a Xylem brand, the ViscoPump is positioned for optical-detection viscosity workflows rather than general-purpose pumping. Typical applications include kinematic viscosity measurements of oils, resins, polymer solutions and other liquids where optical meniscus or flow detection is employed together with temperature-controlled capillaries. By integrating the pump with the TC viscometer cable, laboratories can streamline sample introduction, rinsing and emptying steps within established DIN or ISO viscosity methods. The configuration is aimed at users who already operate or plan to operate optical TC viscometer systems and require a matched pump accessory for reliable fluid handling.

Questions about VZ 8562, ViscoPump for TC detection incl. connection cable for TC viscometers
What is this article?
VZ 8562, ViscoPump for TC detection incl. connection cable for TC viscometers 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 Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
