BTG's new transmitters allows paper producers to save energy and cut over-dosage of additives by using continuous inline viscosity measurement.The new transmitter, MBT-4500, is designed for use in demanding applications. It can be used for measurement of a number of media such as glue, paint, slurries, sugar solution, coating color, etcetera. It is also suitable for use in abrasive media. The transmitter works with the shear stress principle on Newtonian as well as non-Newtonian fluids and delivers the viscosity measurement in any of the following units: cP, mPas, cSt, or mm2/s. It communicates on platforms such as 4-20mA/HART and Profibus PA, as well as on Fieldbus Foundation.
