 |
- Meets ASTM Designation: F 1080, Standard Test Method For Determining The Consistency Of Viscous Liquids Using A Consistometer.
- Meets MIL-R-81294B
- Food Processing
- Paint Manufacturing
- Cosmetic Formulation
- Chemical Production
|
ASTM F 1080 states the measurement of flow gives results that cannot be predicted with viscosity measurements due to surface tension and density effect. The measured flow is related to flow performance of viscous materials sprayed on aircraft surfaces or other large areas.
This stainless steel device is designed to determine the flow of a standard volume of thick liquid or semisolid under its own weight. It consists of a stainless steel reservoir with trap door, engraved graduated track with sidewalls and leveling screws with bubble level. |
| A 75ML sample of material is poured into the reservoir and the distance of flow in a horizontal direction is read from an engraved ruled track after a fixed time following the materials release from the spring loaded gate reservoir. |

| Precision |
| Reproducibility - Viscous materials often vary in consistency dependent upon age, temperature, and shear history. Caution should be exercised between laboratories regarding the history of a sample. Duplicate results by the same operator on the same sample shall be within 0.5 cm. |
| Bias |
| No statement can be made regarding bias as there are no absolute nor widely accepted standards for the property measured by the consistometer. |
| |
| It is the responsibility of the user of the equipment described herein to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. |
