Calibration
The viscometer can be calibrated using a standard viscosity fluid or a sample of a known
viscosity. Calibration allows the viscometer to maintain the accuracy constantly.
In case of a Newtonian fluid, by calibrating an actual sample, using the viscosity value
obtained by another type of viscometer as a correction value, the measurement data obtained
by the SV-A/SV-H series viscometer can be combined into those obtained by the other type of
viscometer.
The vibro viscometer and the capillary viscometer and the rotational viscometer are a type of
calibration equipment for viscosity measurement by JCSS standard (Japan Calibration Service
System).
Simplified calibration when measuring the viscosity near 1 mPa ⋅s (Only for SV-1A/1H/
10A/10H)
Simplified calibration using purified water is a one-key operation. The SV-1A/1H/10A/10H has
a built-in function to measure the temperature of the purified water using the temperature
sensor and calculates the viscosity value of the purified water at that temperature.
At this time, be careful not to influence the viscosity value by generating bubbles.
Standard windows communication tools WinCT-Viscosity (With the SV-A series, it is standard
accessory. With the SV-H series, it is sold separately (AX-SV-53-EX))
Windows communication tools WinCT-Viscosity (CD-ROM) is provided as standard. The
CD-ROM contains the graphing program RsVisco, which imports the data into a personal
computer and displays the results as a graph in real time. With RsVisco, changes in viscosity
over time and temperature dependency of viscosity can be observed easily and the obtained
data can be saved in files.
When using the accessory serial / USB converter, the personal computer can input the data
using the personal computer’s USB port. (With the SV-A series, it is standard accessory. With
the SV-H series, it is sold separately (AX-SV-53-EX))
The cup, that the sample is to be measured in, can be the plastic sample cup and the glass
sample cup. When measuring an organic solvent, use the glass sample cup.
Use the carrying case only for carrying the viscometer. Do not transport the viscometer using
the carrying case. Doing so may cause damage to the viscometer. When transporting the
viscometer, be sure to use the original packing material.
