A&D SV-100A Tuning Fork Vibro Viscometer, 1 to 100 Pa·s (1,000 to 100,000 mPa·s)

Description

A&D SV-100A Vibro Viscometer: 1 to 100 Pa·s

The A&D SV-100A is the high-viscosity model in A&D’s SV-A series of tuning fork vibro viscometers. Two thin sensor plates vibrate at about 30 Hz in the sample, and the viscometer measures the drive needed to keep them moving. That covers 1 to 100 Pa·s (1,000 to 100,000 mPa·s) without changing spindles.

Readings are continuous, so you can watch viscosity change as resins, adhesives, or paints cure, or as a liquid turns to gel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What viscosity range does the SV-100A cover?

1 to 100 Pa·s, which is 1,000 to 100,000 mPa·s (cP). For thinner liquids, the SV-10A covers 0.3 to 10,000 mPa·s.

Why does it show viscosity × density?

Vibro viscometers measure viscosity times density; divide by the sample density to get absolute viscosity.
