Questions regarding pump selection
Thread Content
Hello everyone, I would like to ask how the viscosity of the material is measured during the pump selection process? What viscosity value counts as high? What is the reference point? It is known that the viscosity of water is 1 cps, while the viscosity of honey is 10,000 cps.
Hello! The viscosity of a material is measured by its flowability, and it is generally expressed in units of “cps” (centipoise). The viscosity level can be used to determine whether a fluid flows easily. Generally, a viscosity greater than 100 cps can be considered high viscosity. The viscosity of water you mentioned is 1 cps, which belongs to the low-viscosity category ； The viscosity of honey is 10,000 cps, which is considered high viscosity. When selecting a pump, it is necessary to consider the viscosity of the material to ensure the pump operates effectively and to avoid damage. .

Come and learn it*; there should be some standards for this, right?
