Automatic Viscometer Requires Only 6-mL of Sample Volume for Testing

The miniAV viscometer automates sample measurement and tube cleaning, which are the more labor-intensive parts of measuring kinematic viscosity. Measuring a bit more than 20 tall, the instrument occupies roughly the same footprint as a tabletop rotational viscometer. A built-in temperature bath controls temperature with the high level of precision demanded by ASTM D 445, the kinematic viscosity method. Additional features include a compound Ubbelohde-style viscometer tube with a 100-fold range. Only 6 mL of sample volume is required for testing. A 10-fold range, “fast-run” tube requiring only 3 mL of sample is also available. The instrument is suited for users who have been unable to automate manual viscosity testing because of the high entry cost of traditional automatic viscometers.
