Brookfield Viscosity Standard Fluid - General Information
We recommend that Brookfield Viscosity Standard Fluids be replaced on an annual basis, one year from date
of initial use. These fluids are pure silicone and are not subject to change over time. However, exposure
to outside contaminants through normal use requires replacement on an annual basis. Contamination
may occur by the introduction of solvent, standard of different viscosity or other foreign material.
Viscosity Standard Fluids may be stored under normal laboratory conditions. Disposal should be in
accordance with state, local and federal regulations as specified on the material safety data sheet.
Brookfield Engineering Laboratories does not recertify Viscosity Standard Fluids. We will issue duplicate
copies of the Certificate of Calibration for any fluid within two years of the purchase date.
Brookfield Viscosity Standard Fluids are reusable provided they are not contaminated. Normal practice
for usage in a 600 ml beaker is to return the material from the beaker back into the bottle. When using
smaller volumes in accessories such as Small Sample Adapter, UL Adapter or Thermosel, the fluid is
normally discarded.
