Hi,

could anyone recommend a Viscometer company you use, that can be integrated with Ignition with some of stadart comm protocols such as OPC-UA or Modbus TCP?

We are using Brookfields but those dont even have ethernet and require proprietary software that run their USB COM port.

Thanks

Jakub

Inline or lab?

Don’t remember the model, but I’ve definitely worked with an inline process Brookfields viscometer that had Modbus RTU.
