FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Continuous sensing and display in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise.
  • Magnetic spindle coupling.
  • Allows rapid sample measurement to determine required consistency.
  • LED Digital Display of: Krebs Units (increased resolution in 0.1 KU increments), Grams (in 1 gm increments) and Centipoise (cP).
  • Expanded measurement range (40 to 141 KU; 32 to 1099 g; 27 to 5274 cP).
  • Accuracy to ±1% of full scale range.
  • Reproducibility to ±0.5% of full scale range.
  • Easy to use; no weights; simplifies an established test procedure.
  • Compatible with industry specification (ASTM D562).
  • Base accommodates standard pint, ½ pint, and quart cans.
  • The optional paste spindle is suitable for use with high consistency materials such as roller mill pastes.
  • NIST traceable viscosity standards available.
