C. Recommended Viscosity

Range 1-5 cSt (w/o correction)

The effects of changing viscosity on the FTB600B Series are the same as any other turbine flow meter. It is important to remember that a turbine meter is a viscosity dependent device, where as the viscosity increases the linearity of the flow meter will decrease. (Water like viscosities are ideally suited for use with the FTB600B Series) The FTB600B Series is factory calibrated with water.

Correction procedure for higher viscosity

For viscosities greater than 5 cSt consult the factory. The FTB600B Series can be used on fluids greater than 5 cSt. however, the K-factor (linearity) will change. This requires a recalibration of the FTB600B Series at the known viscosity to determine the new KFactor.
