In simple terms, viscosity can be referred to as the 'thickness' of a liquid - or its resistance to flow. The viscometry instruments displayed below use a variety of methods to determine the viscosity of a fluids under one flow condition.

This standard test for dynamic viscosity measurements is now faster and more accurate by use of new high precision microprocessor controls.
As most viscosity measurements are highly temperature sensitive, the samples are placed on a temperature controlled plate which can be set from 5 to 65°C.

The Autovisc Flow cup timer allows the user to standardise calibration and use of most flow cups, eliminating human error.
The timer is activated automatically as the sample flows past an optical sensor. As soon as a break in the flow occurs the elapsed flow time is shown on the display.
