Note
: 1. 1 Pa = 10 dyne/cm2
2. Viscosity Range is given at rotational speed of 10 RPM
3. 5xHB is the highest torque range available
4. Not for use with DV-E Viscometers
M = 1 million
K = 1 thousand
Pa = Pascal
cP = Centipoise
mPa•s = Millipascal•seconds
Special Considerations
In taking viscosity measurements with the DV2T Viscometer, there are two considerations
which pertain to the low viscosity limit of effective measurement.
