5-5 Measuring the Absolute Value of Viscosity (For all models)
The SV-A/SV-H Series Sine-wave Vibro Viscometer, as a measuring principle, detects the product of
viscosity and density.

Note
The density can be measured, using the density determination kit, AD-1653 in
combination with a balance.
To obtain the absolute viscosity value precisely, do as follows:
5-5-1 At Measurement
Divide the displayed viscosity value by the sample density to obtain the absolute value of viscosity.
Example
(1) Measure the sample and confirm the displayed viscosity value.
Here, 736 mPa

s as an example.
(2) Check the sample density at the temperature when the sample is measured.
Here,
0.856

(3) Divide the displayed viscosity value by the sample density to obtain the absolute value
of viscosity.
Here, 860 mPa
