Brookfield DV3T Rheometer - Manual (Page 6)

Brookfield Engineering Labs., Inc. Page 6 Manual No. M13-2100
All units of measurement are displayed according to either the CGS system or the SI system.
1. Viscosity appears in units of centipoise (cP), Poise (P), milliPascal-seconds (mPa•s) or Pascal-
seconds (Pa•s) on the DV3T Rheometer display or centistokes (cSt) or millimeter squared
per second (mm 2 /sec).
2. Shear Stress appears in units of dynes/square centimeter (D/cm 2 ) or Newtons/square
meter (N/m 2 )/or Pascals (Pa).
3. Shear Rate appears in units of reciprocal seconds (1/sec).
4. Torque appears in units of dyne-centimeters or Newton-meters (shown as percent “%” in
both cases) on the DV3T Rheometer display.
5. Density appears in units of grams/cubic centimeter (g/cm 3 ) or kilograms/cubic meter
(kg/m 3 ).
Note: To change CGS to SI units on the display (see Section IV.3: Global Settings).
The equivalent units of measurement in the SI system are calculated using the following conversions:
SI CGS
Viscosity: 1 mPa•s = 1 cP
Shear Stress: 1 Newton/m 2 = 10 dyne/cm 2
Torque: 1 Newton•m = 10 7 dyne•cm
References to viscosity throughout this manual are done in CGS units. The DV3T Rheometer provides
equivalent information in SI units.
