Configuring the VI Matcher

VI Matching with VISCPRO

®

The VI Matcher is a VISCPRO

®

software feature that functions in

tandem with the VI analyses to enable Viscosity Index (VI) calculation
from sample data residing in the VISCPRO

®

database.

Viscosity Index calculations require kinematic viscosity data derived
from samples tested at a high and a low temperature. The VI Matcher
permits the user to define which viscometer tubes are high temperature
tubes and which are low temperature tubes.

After the VI Matcher has been initially configured by the user (this is
ordinarily done during initial instrument setup), the VI Analysis can be
used to automatically scan the VISCPRO

®

sample database for samples
