Test Method viscometer
Determines the dynamic viscosity of a substance by the rotation of a specified spindle within the sample at the speed giving the maximum torque reading on the viscometer. The resulting torque reading is used to calculate the viscosity of the substance.

The Master Series Rotational Viscosity Software is designed to program the Master Series Viscometer and is a powerful key to document and study the viscosity behavior of fluids. The Master Series Rotational Viscosity Software is capable of graphing simple curves, ramps and “multi-step” curves allowing the user to study trends and the behavior of different materials. A powerful graph key assists the user to easily design flow curves required.
