Viscosity Standards

General purpose oil fluids are best suited for those instruments using Cone/Plate Viscometers/Rheometers.

Features and Benefits

• Accuracy: +/-1% of viscosity value
• Appropriate for use at shear rates greater than 500 sec-1
• Recommended for use with cone/plate Viscometers at viscosities above 5,000 cP
• Brookfield oil viscosity standards are hydrocarbon based, either mineral oil or polybutenes.  Note: Other oil fluids are available - call for details
• Brookfield Viscosity Standards are accurate to ±1% of the stated viscosity and are certified by methods traceable to the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The selection of one or two fluids will normally provide sufficient measurement points to verify calibration of your instrument. All fluids are supplied in 1/2 liter (1 pint) containers complete with a certificate of calibration. CAP Oil Fluids are supplied in 150 mL (4 oz) containers

Oil Viscosity Standards are used during calibration checks of specific instruments such as cone/plate viscometers or rheometers as well as Krebs spindle geometry instruments.

Silicone viscosity standard fluids are most commonly used to verify calibration of Brookfield lab viscometers/ rheometers and are less temperature sensitive than mineral oils.

General purpose silicone fluids are the most commonly used standard for verifying calibration of your Brookfield Viscometer/Rheometer. Silicone Standards are Newtonian fluids which are accurate to ±1% of viscosity value. Silicone fluids provide excellent temperature stability and are less temperature sensitive than oil viscosity standards. Brookfield Viscosity Standards are certified by methods traceable to the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The selection of one or two fluids will normally provide sufficient measurement points to verify calibration of your instrument. All fluids are supplied in ½ liter (1 pint) containers complete with a certificate of calibration.

Features and Benefits

• Accuracy: ±1% of viscosity value
• Excellent temperature stability
• Recommended for use with Brookfield and most other rotational viscometers
• Most economical
• Special viscosity values and temperature calibrations available upon request

High Temperature Silicone Fluids are Newtonian fluids calibrated at 25°C, 93.3°C and 149°C. These fluids are accurate to ±1% of viscosity value and are recommended for use with the Brookfield Thermosel accessory.
