Pioneering viscometry since 1972 TYPICAL APPLICATION FIELDS PROCESS VISCOMETER SPECIFICALLY DEVELOPED FOR SHIP COMBUSTION SYSTEMS Based on Sofraser’s 40 years of technological experience, the Sofuel viscometer assures the improvement of ship equipment’s performance by allowing instant viscosity and temperature measurements. Matching the maritime industry requirements, it is the ideal instrument for achieving optimal combustion efficiency with any kind of fuel. • Reduce fuel consumption by improving combustion parameters: Providing accurate fuel oil viscosity measurement, the Sofuel manages to correct the variations for each supplier’s fuel oil quality and composition. • Stand-alone equipment: Keeping the same level of performances at high viscosity & high temperature as at low viscosity & low temperature, the Sofuel viscometer allows an easy switch from HFO to MDO without any external intervention. • Rugged, reliable and maintenance-free: With thousands of units installed around the world, Sofraser marine sensors have proven their polyvalence and reliability while providing long-lasting customer satisfaction. Easy-to-handle and install: The Sofuel sensor can be mounted in any position and is unaffected by vibration or flow variation. Moreover, it can easily be retrofitted thanks to standard housing dimension.
