CleanWaveTM technology is integrated with Rheonics inline viscometer or Rheonics inline density meter and viscometer to create SlurrySense, a measurement probe that prevents deposits from forming using an inbuilt vibrator. The CleanWaveTM vibrations can be used continuously or intermittently to, respectively, prevent or slough off deposits. With the sensor probe cleanness maintained, the Rheonics inline viscometer or Rheonics inline density meter and viscometer can continuously provide reliable consistency readings without the need for operator cleaning interventions.
