Units (increased resolution in 0.1 KU increments)
- Grams
(in 1 gm increments)
- Expanded
measurement range (40 to 141 KU; 32 to 1099 g)
- Accuracy
to ?% of range
- Reproducibility
to ?.5% of range
- Output
to parallel printer for automatic test documentation
- Easy
to use; no weights; simplifies an established test procedure
- Compatible
with industry specification (ASTM D562)
- Base
accommodates standard pint, 1/2 pint, and quart cans
- Optional
air purge allows interior of KU-1+ to be pressurized with air or
inert gas.
- The
optional paste spindle is suitable for use with high consistency
materials such as roller mil pastes.
- NIST
traceable viscosity standards available
Operation
Samples are tested in standard paint industry cans held by a fixture
located on the viscometer base. The can is filled to within 3/4"
(20mm) of the top. The KU-1+ operating lever has two positions:
Up:
Spindle stationary, drive motor off
Down: Spindle rotating; sample being measured
The
displayed reading can be held by depressing the HOLD switch at any time.
With the viscometer in the HOLD configuration, the display may be
switched to compare the Krebs unit (KU) reading with the associated gram
(gm) reading.
Brookfield Oil Viscosity Standards in Krebs units are NIST traceable and
are recommended for verifying calibration of the KU-1+ Viscometer.
