A highly sensitive viscosity sensor that includes a reactor connection has been designed for end-point polymerization in pressurized or vacuum vessels. Called the M10, it uses the “piston time-of-fall” method for measuring viscosities from 0.1 to 100,000 CPS and operates from vacuum to 100 psi. It can be used in conjunction with a PLC to provide automatic sampling and process control.
