Description
BS/U-tube reverse flow viscometer F is a precision capillary instrument for kinematic viscosity determination in the measuring range 200–1000 mm²/s, with viscometer constant K = 1.0. Built to the classic reverse-flow U-tube geometry, it supports reliable timing of liquid flow under controlled temperature conditions and is suited to routine quality control as well as research applications in petroleum, chemical and materials laboratories. Each unit is supplied with a factory calibration certificate, ensuring traceable performance from the outset. Compliance with BS and ASTM D445-446 as well as ISO 3104-3105 underpins method compatibility across international test protocols. The instrument is offered as a single piece with a net weight of 0,1 kg and originates from Spain; it is manufactured by Irmeco. Compact and straightforward to handle, this size F reverse-flow viscometer integrates readily into existing viscosity baths and timing setups where higher-viscosity samples within its stated range must be characterised according to recognised standards.
This article is part of Viscometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Viscometer
What is this article?
Viscometer is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Irmeco 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.
