-Fenske Routine Viscometers
The Cannon
®
-Fenske Routine viscometer is a rugged and inexpensive viscometer that works well if the sample is transparent or
translucent.
• For kinematic viscosity of transparent liquids up to 20,000cSt.
• Requires a sample of approximately 7mL.

-Fenske Opaque Viscometers
The reverse flow viscometers are designed for testing opaque liquids. These viscometers wet the timing section of the
viscometer capillary only during the actual measurement and must be cleaned, dried and refilled before a repeat
measurement can be made. By contrast, other viscometer types commonly used to measure transparent liquids allow the
sample to be repeatedly drawn up into the capillary, permitting duplicate measurements.
• For measurement of transparent and dark liquids having kinematic viscosities of up to 20,000cSt
• Requires a sample of approximately 12mL.
Ubbelohde Viscometers
Ubbelohde viscometers measure transparent liquids, and unlike the Cannon
®
-Fenske Routine viscometers, they maintain
the same viscometer constant at all temperatures. This is advantageous when samples are to be measured at different
temperatures.
• Suspended-level type viscometers are for transparent liquids of up to 100,000cSt
• Requires a sample volume of approximately 11mL.
Viscometer Holders
Koehler offers a wide range of viscometer holders for use with the KV1000 instrument. The correct holder must be used
with the corresponding viscometer tube for proper operation:
