Benefits |
Direct kinematic viscosity measurement |
A measure of a liquid’s flow under the influence of gravity is provided at a constant temperature, so viscosity can be compared and trended with prior readings. Requires no density check, temperature measurement, instrument pre-configuration or calculation. |
Split-cell capillary channel |
Using a very small sample size; the sampling chamber controls temperature while infrared sensors measure flow and trajectory, delivering immediate results. |
Self-contained with high-resolution touch screen, battery and microprocessor |
Enables easy operation, in sunlight or low light, drawing minimal power for a 6-hour battery life. Requires no PC. |
Small sample size |
Small sample size of 60µl (about 4 drops) is easy to obtain without impacting lubricant level. Reduces waste. |
Temperature controlled: 40°C ± 0.1°C |
Each sample is held to a constant temperature for consistently accurate readings without additional pre-test measurements |
Works with transparent and opaque oils |
Provides accurate results for even the dirtiest samples. |
No cleaning solvent necessary |
Eliminates worry about solvent disposal in remote locations. Fewer items to carry. |
Weighs less than 1.8 kg (4 lbs.) |
Designed for remote locations, the SpectroVisc Q3000 series includes a hinged cover that protects the sample chamber and touch screen while being carried by hand, in a toolbox or in a knapsack. |
Battery operated |
Stays charged for more than 6 hours. Built-in universal charger for use worldwide; region-specific power cable included. |
