DV1MHB Bookfield Digital Viscometer

A continuous sensing capability for rapid viscosity measurement makes this economical DV1 digital viscometer a standout. Measures viscosity and temperature simultaneously (with an optional temperature probe) with a choice of 18 different speeds. With its timed measurement function, data can easily be sent to a PC or printer.

The DV1 is available in a choice of languages such as English, French, German, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.  Optional software allows the DV1 to collect, analyze and record test data.

TORQUE EXPLANATIONS:

• LV is for low viscosity materials and can measure the thinnest materials. Typical examples include inks, oils, and solvents.
• RV is for medium viscosity materials than those measured with an LV torque. Typical examples include creams, food, and paints.
• HA is for higher viscosity materials than those measured with an RV torque. Typical examples include gels, chocolate and epoxies.
• HB is for even higher viscosity materials than those measured with an HA torque spring. Typical examples include asphalt, caulking compounds, and molasses.
