  1. What is redwood Viscometer?

The Redwood viscometer is an instrument used to measure the viscosity of a liquid. There are two types of Redwood viscometers: Redwood No. 1 and Redwood No. 2, each designed for different viscosity ranges.

  1. Difference between Redwood Viscometer No. 1 or Redwood Viscometer No. 2

The Redwood viscometer No. 1 is used for determining the oils having redwood viscosity up to 2000 secs. More than 2000 sec viscosity oil will be tested in Redwood viscometer No. 2.

  1. Purpose of the Redwood Viscometer ?
  • Purpose: Designed for measuring the viscosity of lighter oils and fluids.
  • Viscosity Range: Typically used for liquids with kinematic viscosities in the range of 1 to 2000 Redwood seconds (RS).
  • Operation: The instrument consists of an oil cup, a heating bath, and a standardized orifice at the bottom. The oil cup is filled with the test fluid, which is then allowed to flow through the orifice. The time it takes for a specified volume of the liquid to pass through the orifice is measured.
  • Units: The viscosity is expressed in Redwood seconds, which is the time in seconds for 50 mL of liquid to flow out through the orifice.
  1. Procedure for Using Redwood Viscometer No. 1
  1. Preparation: Ensure the viscometer is clean and free from any residues.
  2. Filling: Fill the oil cup with the sample liquid up to the specified level.
  3. Temperature Control: If the test requires a specific temperature, use the heating bath to maintain the required temperature of the sample.
  4. Flow Measurement: Open the orifice and start the timer simultaneously. Measure the time taken for 50 mL of the liquid to flow out.
  5. Calculation: The time recorded is the kinematic viscosity of the liquid expressed in Redwood seconds.
  1. Applications of the Redwood viscometer
  • Commonly used in the petroleum industry to measure the viscosity of oils and lubricants.
  • Helps in determining the quality and performance characteristics of oils.
  1. How to Convert Redwood viscosity to Kinematic viscosity ?

 

  • Hamco will provide chart for calculating redwood viscosity to kinematic viscosity.
  • Hamco also provide you the formula for calculating the kinematic viscosity of the oil deriving from its redwood viscosity.
