How does it work?
Prepare it
The Calibrator uses a Sample Fluid Cylinder that should be filled with the calibration fluid and then place the sensor probe within it.
Assemble it
The Type-SR sensor probe and fluid sample cylinder are placed in the Calibrator.
Start Calibration
The Calibrator Software is guiding the operator to define the fluid parameters, calibration set points, and start the calibration process.
Calibrator
In many industries– including pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, petrochemicals, and chemical processing– regulatory frameworks and quality standards require that measurement instruments carry valid, traceable calibration certificates. Rheonics SRV and SRD sensors are designed for high accuracy and long-term stability. To align with industry standards, the Rheonics Calibrator addresses this topic by verifying the performance of Rheonics SRV inline process Viscometer and SRD Inline process density meter and viscometer under controlled conditions, and certifying the accuracy of the readings.
The Rheonics Calibrator Software performs the measurement, adjusts the calibration if needed, and creates a calibration report, and writes a log onto the sensor electronics (SME).
The Calibrator can be used with any Sensor Module Electronics (SME) variant (SME-TRD,-TR,-DRM, or- BOX (E4)).

Sample Fluid Cylinder
The fluid sample cylinder is made of brass to ensure good temperature uniformity, which is crucial for accurate viscosity and density measurements. Every sample fluid cylinder has a unique serial number. There are three different types and the product key of each is part of the serial number.

Calibrator Comparison
When temperature control is required for the Type-SR sensors’ operation, some alternatives to the Rheonics TCM Line are baths and thermal ovens. These are commonly used but have disadvantages, predominantly in the form factor and temperature accuracy.
The main difference between the use of the Rheonics TCM line and other laboratory standard setups for static fluids in controlled temperatures (e.g., beaker in laboratory ovens) is the accurate and stable temperature control of the fluid that the calibrator achieves. Temperature is a key parameter of a fluid; it has a significant impact on the viscosity and density measurements. This parameter should be controlled and maintained constant to achieve accurate and reliable viscosity and density readings.
