Saybolt Viscometer Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-TM-11611
Lab Instruments Manufacturers manufactures the Saybolt Viscometer Apparatus in-house at our own India facility, supplying it to petroleum-testing and thermodynamics labs, and as an OEM/private-label item to distributors and exporters across India and internationally.
What This Apparatus Does
This viscometer measures the viscosity of petroleum products by timing how long a fixed volume of sample takes to flow through a calibrated jet, using the Saybolt method. The unit is built around a stainless-steel water bath housing the oil cup, and is supplied with both Universal and Furol jets to cover a wider viscosity range than a single-jet design, with water-bath heating and cooling used to hold the sample at the required test temperature throughout the run.
Key details
| Method | Saybolt method |
| Water bath | stainless-steel water bath housing the oil cup |
| Jets | both Universal and Furol jets |
| Temperature control | water-bath heating and cooling |
Typical Lab Use
Petroleum-testing laboratories and refineries use this apparatus to determine Saybolt Universal and Saybolt Furol viscosity values for lubricating oils and other petroleum products, and engineering colleges use it to teach timed-flow viscosity measurement alongside our Redwood Viscometer Apparatus, which applies the same timed-flow principle using a different standardised cup and jet design.
Manufactured In-House
This apparatus is fabricated and assembled at our own India production facility, with the water bath, oil cup, and jets machined and calibrated in-house. Manufacturing in-house means our team controls build quality and jet-calibration accuracy at every stage, and can configure the jet set or accompanying courseware for a specific curriculum or export order without waiting on an outside supplier.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Saybolt Viscometer Apparatus measure?
Saybolt Universal and Saybolt Furol viscosity of petroleum products, by timing the flow of a fixed sample volume through a calibrated jet at a set temperature.
What is the difference between the Universal and Furol jets?
The two jets are sized for different viscosity ranges, letting the same apparatus test both lighter and heavier petroleum products.
Can this be supplied as an OEM/private-label order?
Yes, it can be produced and packed under a buyer's own brand name and item codes for distributors and exporters ordering in bulk.
