Digital Precision for Paints, Coatings, and Inks

The KU-3 Viscometer from AMETEK Brookfield is the industry standard for measuring the viscosity of paints, coatings, and inks. Featuring a fully digital display and a magnetic spindle coupling, the KU-3 offers unmatched accuracy and ease of use. This versatile instrument displays viscosity in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise, making it ideal for ensuring product consistency in accordance with ASTM D562.

Features Brookfield KU-3 Viscometer

• Continuous Sensing and Display:

  Provides real-time measurements in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise, allowing for immediate analysis of sample consistency.

• Magnetic Spindle Coupling:

  Enables quick and secure attachment and removal of spindles, streamlining the testing process.

• Rapid Sample Measurement:

  Quickly determine the required consistency of your samples, improving efficiency in the testing process.

• LED Digital Display:

  Offers high-resolution readings with increments of 0.1 KU, 1 gram, and centipoise (cP), ensuring precise and accurate data.

• Expanded Measurement Range:

  Covers a wide range of measurements from 40 to 141 KU, 32 to 1099 grams, and 27 to 5274 cP, making it versatile for various applications.

• High Accuracy:

  Delivers accuracy to ±1% of the full-scale range, ensuring reliable and consistent results.

• Exceptional Reproducibility:

  Achieve reproducibility to ±0.5% of the full-scale range, providing confidence in repeated measurements.

• User-Friendly Operation:

  Eliminates the need for weights, simplifying an established test procedure and making it easy to use for all skill levels.

• Industry Specification Compliance:

  Fully compatible with ASTM D562, ensuring adherence to industry standards.

• Versatile Base Design:

  Accommodates standard pint, ½ pint, and quart cans, providing flexibility in sample container sizes.

• Optional Paste Spindle:

  Suitable for testing high consistency materials, such as roller mill pastes, expanding the instrument’s versatility.

• NIST Traceable Viscosity Standards Available:

  Ensure your measurements are accurate and compliant with industry standards.

How It Works

The KU-3 Viscometer operates by measuring the resistance of a spindle rotating in the sample fluid, held in standard paint industry cans. The spindle’s resistance is converted into a reading in Krebs units, grams, and centipoise, allowing for accurate and repeatable measurements. The instrument’s lever offers two positions:

• Up: Spindle stationary, drive motor off
• Down: Spindle rotating, sample being measured

A HOLD switch is available to lock in the test results, which can then be compared across the different measurement units.

Applications

• Paints
• Coatings
• Adhesives
• Inks
• Pastes
