Description
Our automatic kinematic viscometers determine kinematic and dynamic viscosity, density, viscosity index (VI), cloud point, freeze point, and many other parameters in one run. Exchange all your capillaries for a single unit. The SVM series covers the entire range with one cell for maximum flexibility. Enjoy all the benefits of ASTM D7042 and report in both D7042 as well as D445 with the integrated ASTM-defined bias corrections. No matter the sample, there’s an SVM that fits your needs.
