JLRIOR t o the development of the Stabl-Vis rotameter, accurate flow rate measurement of viscous fluids was impossible except with automatic temperature control or a whole series of painstaking calibrations covering every few points of change in viscosity. Charts ""A" and "B" prove how the Stabl-Vis rotameter has removed these difficulties. Chart "A" shows calibrations for water, and for oil with a viscosity of 224 S.S.U. using a size 1W rotameter with an old style float. The average error introduced b y the change to viscous oil from water is 3 3 ^ % , based on the water flow. Chart amitz, National Varnished Products Co.^ was chosen vice president. Robert D.
