Description
Viscosity standard S3 is a ROTI®Calipure calibration liquid specified at 4,5 cSt at 20 °C for instrument verification and viscosity determination. The material is supplied in a 500 ml glass bottle and is characterised by a density range of 0,798 to 0,813 g/cm³, a flash point of 70 °C and a boiling point of 200 °C. These defined physical properties support reproducible calibration of viscometers and related measuring systems in analytical and quality-control laboratories. The standard is suitable for routine checks, method validation and comparative viscosity measurements under controlled temperature conditions. Offered by manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTI®Calipure line, it provides a practical reference medium for laboratories that determine physical properties of liquids. Clear labelling of viscosity, density and thermal data facilitates integration into existing calibration protocols without additional interpretation of the stated values.

What is this article?
Viscosity standard S3, ROTI®Calipure, 4,5 cSt (20 °C), 500 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
