KU-3 (Krebs Units) Viscometer
A completely digital calculating Krebs Unit Instrument with all the reliability you’d expect in Brookfield instrumentation and with relative centipoise display.
Product Description
KU-3 is used widely for making viscosity measurements on paints/coatings in accordance with ASTM D562.
Features:
- Continuous sensing and display in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise.
- Magnetic spindle coupling.
- Allows rapid sample measurement to determine required consistency.
- LED Digital Display of: Krebs Units (increased resolution in 0.1 KU increments), Grams (in 1 gm increments) and Centipoise (cP).
- Expanded measurement range (40 to 141 KU; 32 to 1099 g; 27 to 5274 cP).
- Accuracy to ±1% of full scale range.
- Reproducibility to ±0.5% of full scale range.
- Output to parallel printer for automatic test documentation.
- Easy to use; no weights; simplifies an established test procedure.
- Compatible with industry specification (ASTM D562).
- Base accommodates standard pint, ½ pint, and quart cans.
- The optional paste spindle is suitable for use with high consistency materials such as roller mill pastes.
- NIST traceable viscosity standards available.
Applications:
- Paints & Coatings
- Adhesives
- Inks
- Pastes
What’s included: Instrument, Krebs Spindle, Communications Port for Printer, Adapter for Pint and Half Pint Cans
