P Poise
mPa
•s
milliPascal seconds
Pa
•s
Pascal seconds
cSt centistokes
mm 2 /s
millimeters squared per second
1000 cP = 10 P = 1000 mPa•s = 1 Pa•s
1 cSt = 1 mm
2 /s
TIP: When cSt units are chosen for viscosity, a
density value must be entered in the Density
field in Configure Viscosity Test.
Speed
RPM
revolutions per minute
1/s reciprocal seconds
The relationship between RPM and 1/s is defined by
the SCR value of the selected spindle. See Appendix
D for details.
