miniPV®/miniPV-X | Automated Dilute Solution/Kinematic Viscometer

The CANNON®miniPV and miniPV-X are automated, benchtop viscometers for the unattended processing and testing of up to 10 samples in organic solvents and aqueous solutions for dilute solution viscosity (DSV) of polymers and kinematic viscosity (KV) for general purpose applications.

Features and Benefits

Designed For Your Testing Needs

A trusted CANNON viscometer platform offers reliability and dependable support

Viscosity range for DSV from 0.3 to 700 mm2/s (cSt)

Viscosity range for KV from 0.02 to 1,200 mm²/s (cSt)

Excellent temperature control (±0.01°C) from 15 to 100 °C with integrated Thermoelectriccooling

On-board software determines dynamic (with optional density meter), inherent, intrinsic,reduced,and specific viscosity, plus molecular weight

Fully Automated

Unattended operation up to 10 samples

Lowers operator-to-operator variation

Automated washing and drying replaces manual tube cleaning

Software controls the instrument and simplifies calibration, data entry, method selection, calculation selection, report formatting, and data exporting

Employing VISCPRO^®software, one PC can manage up to four instruments

Sealed System

Eliminates sample evaporation

Reduces operator exposure to harmful chemicals

Allows for measurement of atmospherically sensitive and volatile samples

Robust Design
