SimpleVIS® | Portable Automated Kinematic Viscometer

User-friendly and robust, the SimpleVIS by CANNON^® is a portable, single sample, automatedkinematicviscometer used for on-site testing. The available tubes cover a viscosity range of 2to 700 mm²/second (cSt) at two selected temperatures between 40 °C and 100 °C.

Features and Benefits

Automated and Precise

Go from sample injection to test result in three to five minutes

Precise determination of direct kinematic viscosity (KV) at 40°C and 100°C (or switch to any two custom calibrations between 40°C and 100°C upon request)

Offers true KVwithout the need to correlate dynamic viscosity data

Adheres to ASTM D7279 and due to exceptional temperature control (±0.05 °C) allows for near ASTM D445 precision

Viscosity range for low range tubes is 2to 140 mm2/second (cSt) at 40 °C and 100 °C

Viscosity range for standard tubes:

10 to 700 mm²/second (cSt) at 40 °C

5.5 to 200 mm²/second (cSt) at 100 °C

Dependable, Self-contained, and Portable

A trusted CANNON viscometer platform offers reliability and dependable support

Rugged, reliable design has only two moving parts

Stand alone, no PC or external utilities needed

Takes up less spacethan a coffee machine and weighs 10 lb

Runs off a 12 VDC vehiclecharging port with power inverter add-on

Simple and Safe Operation

Follow step-by-step test instructions with agraphic touch screen display

Optional printer available

Factory calibration means no switches, gauges, or valves to adjust

The intrinsically safe instrument uses 12 VDC power

Economical

Only 0.5 mL of sample and 10 to 15 mL of solvent is needed for eachtest

Solid-state temperature control means no bath fluid

Sample is injected directly into the instrument, eliminatingthe need for sample vials
