Brookfield DV2T Viscometer - Manual (Page 6)

Brookfield Engineering Labs., Inc. Page 6 Manual No. M13-167-B0614
All units of measurement are displayed according to either the CGS system or the SI system.
1.
Viscosity appears in units of centipoise (cP), Poise (P), milliPascal-seconds (mPa•s) or
Pascal-seconds (Pa•s) on the DV2T Viscometer display or centistokes (cSt) or millimeter
squared per second (mm
2
/sec).
2.
Shear Stress appears in units of dynes/square centimeter (D/cm
2
) or Newtons/
square meter (N/m
2
)/or Pascals (Pa).
3.
Shear Rate appears in units of reciprocal seconds (1/sec).
4.
Torque appears in units of dyne-centimeters or Newton-meters (shown as percent “%” in
both cases) on the DV2T Viscometer display.
5.
Density appears in units of grams/cubic centimeter (g/cm
3
) or kilograms/cubic
meter (kg/m
3
).
Note:
To change CGS to SI units on the display - see Section IV.3: Global Settings.
The equivalent units of measurement in the SI system are calculated using the following
conversions:
SI CGS
Viscosity: 1 mPa•s = 1 cP
Shear Stress: 1 Newton/m
2
= 10 dyne/cm
2
Torque: 1 Newton•m = 10
7
dyne•cm
References to viscosity throughout this manual are done in CGS units. The DV2T Viscometer
provides equivalent information in SI units.
