Ametek Brookfield KU-3 Viscometer

Brookfield offers a completely digital calculating Krebs Unit Instrument with all the reliability you'd expect in Brookfield instrumentation...now with relative centipoise display.

Why the KU-3? This instrument is used widely for making viscosity measurements on paints/coatings in accordance with ASTM D562.

  • Continuous sensing and display in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise
  • Magnetic spindle coupling
  • Allows rapid sample measurement to determine required consistency
  • LED Digital Display of: Krebs Units (increased resolution in 0.1 KU increments), Grams (in 1 gm increments) and Centipoise (cP)
  • Expanded measurement range (40 to 141 KU; 32 to 1099 g; 27 to 5274 cP)
  • Accuracy to ±1% of full-scale range
  • Reproducibility to ±0.5% of full-scale range
  • Easy to use; no weights; simplifies an established test procedure
  • Compatible with industry specification (ASTM D562)
  • Base accommodates standard pint, ½ pint, and quart cans
  • The optional paste spindle is suitable for use with high consistency materials such as roller mill pastes
  • NIST traceable viscosity standards available
