1 ABOUT YOUR VISCOSITY DIP CUP
Elcometer Viscosity Dip Cups are easy-to-use gauges for rapid measurement of viscosity of liquids.
The cup is held by its handle and is dipped into the liquid to be measured. The cup is removed from the
liquid and the time taken for the liquid to drain through an orifice in the bottom of the cup is measured.
The measured kinematic viscosity is generally expressed in seconds (s) flow time, which can be converted
to Centistokes (cSt). A wide range of cups with different orifices is available for measurements between
2 cSt and 1840 cSt.
