• For DV-I and Dial Viscometers, use the torque reading and manually convert to a viscosity
value using the table in Appendix A.
• For DV-II Viscometers, use the spindle 99 entry. Enter the following values:
SMC (Spindle Multiplier Constant) = 105
SRC (Shear Rate Constant) = .677
Note: Customers who use the Brookfield Spiral Adapter may need to have their Brookfield Viscometer/
Rheometer serviced before using this accessory device. All Brookfield digital viscometers/
rheometers with serial number lower than 24250 may not have proper alignment between
bearings and pivot cup. The same applies to all Brookfield dial viscometers.
This does not present any problem for normal Brookfield Viscometer/Rheometer use. However,
it may result in erroneous data when using the Spiral Adapter. For this reason, please return
your Brookfield Viscometer/Rheometer to Brookfield for servicing before using it with the
Spiral Adapter.
