The MiniVisc 3000 series viscometers are the first truly portable, solvent-free, temperature-controlled kinematic viscometers, providing high-accuracy measurements for easy detection of viscosity variations caused by contamination, mix-ups, and oil degradation. These devices were designed to determine kinematic viscosity at 40 degrees Celsius in the field for applications where immediate results are essential for determining the health of critical equipment.<\/p>\n
The MiniVisc 3000 viscometers use a patented split cell design that enables measurement of kinematic viscosity using only 60 microliters of oil. When closed, the center pieces of the split cell form a funnel with a 100-micron gap allowing oil to flow down by gravity. Sensors along the funnel are triggered when oil flows by, and the flow time between sensors is measured to calculate kinematic viscosity. When opened, the split cell can be easily cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaning pad, making it ready for the next sample without the need for cleaning solvents.<\/p>\n
Key features and benefits include:
\nDirect kinematic viscosity measurement at a constant temperature for trending
\nSplit-cell capillary channel requiring only a very small sample size
\nSelf-contained with high-resolution touch screen and battery operation
\nTemperature controlled to 40 degrees Celsius for consistently accurate readings
\nWorks with both transparent and opaque oils providing results for dirty samples
\nNo cleaning solvent necessary eliminating solvent disposal worries
\nLightweight design weighing less than 1.8 kilograms for remote locations
\nBattery operated for more than 6 hours of field use<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
