Brookeld Viscosity Standard Fluid - General Information
We recommend that Brookeld Viscosity Standard Fluids be replaced on an annual basis, one year
from date of initial use. These uids are pure silicone and are not subject to change over time.
However, exposure to outside contaminants through normal use requires replacement on an annual
basis. Contamination may occur by the introduction of solvent, standard of different viscosity or
other foreign material.
Viscosity Standard Fluids may be stored under normal laboratory conditions. Disposal should be
in accordance with state, local and federal regulations as specied on the material safety data sheet.
Brookeld Engineering Laboratories does not recertify Viscosity Standard Fluids. We will issue
duplicate copies of the Certicate of Calibration for any uid within two years of the purchase date.
Brookeld Viscosity Standard Fluids are reusable provided they are not contaminated. Normal
practice for usage in a 600 ml beaker is to return the material from the beaker back into the bottle.
When using smaller volumes in accessories such as Small Sample Adapter, UL Adapter, Thermosel
or Spiral Adapter, the uid is normally discarded.
Calibration Procedure for LV #1-3 (#61-63) and RV, HA, HB (#2-6) Brookeld spindles:
Note: The LV #4 (#64) and RV, HA, HB #7 have been omitted from this proce-
dure. Brookeld does not recommend the use of these spindles to perform a
calibration check on your instrument. Reasons pertain to the small amount
of sample surface area that makes contact with the viscosity standard, the
difculty of establishing the immersion mark precisely and the need for
precise temperature control at 25°C in the immediate vicinity of the spindle.
Follow these steps using one of the recommended spindles to verfy calibration on you instrument:
1) Place the viscosity standard uid (in the proper container) into the water bath.
2) Lower the DV-E into measurement position (with guard leg if LV or RV series viscometer
is used).
3) Attach the spindle to the viscometer. If you are using a disk shaped spindle, avoid trapping
