Laboratory Viscometer – KU-3

Brookfield offers a completely digital calculating Krebs Unit Instrument with all the reliability you’d expect in Brookfield instrumentation…now with relative centipoise display.

Why the KU-3? This instrument is used widely for making viscosity measurements on paints/coatings in accordance with ASTM D562.

Features:

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