Status: | inactive |
Page Count: | 23 |
ICS Code (Measurement of volume, mass, density, viscosity): | 17.060 |
scope:
This standard gives specifications and operating instructions for glass capillary kinematic viscometers of all the types described in detail in Annex A1, Annex A2, and Annex A3 as follows:
Modified Ostwald viscometers, Annex A1
Suspended-level viscometers, Annex A2
Reverse-flow viscometers, Annex A3
The calibration of the viscometers is described in Section 6.
This standard covers some widely used viscometers suitable for use in accordance with Test Method D 445. Other viscometers of the glass capillary type which are capable of measuring kinematic viscosity within the limits of precision given in Test Method D 445 may be used.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
