Kinematic Viscometer Types
Flow Cup
STANDARDS: ISO 2431, ASTM D-1200
Flow cup viscometers provide kinematic viscosity data. The measured kinematic viscosity is generally expressed in seconds (s) flow time when the fluid is flowing through an orifice at a specified temperature. Thanks to the conversion equations the viscosity is calculated from the flow time to centistokes (cSt). The calibration certificates are supplied with the cups.
According to the standards, there are several viscosity ranges available from 5 cSt.
Flow cups made of anodized aluminum body with a stainless steel orifice.
Ensuring the accuracy of the test results, FUNGILAB recommends a periodic calibration check. You can check the viscosity results using the standard oils specially manufactured for these kind of viscometers (available under request), or sending the instrument to our calibration laboratories.
Industries like paint, ink, varnishes and similar products use these very easy to use flow cups to quickly calculate the viscosity.
The cups can be supplied separately or with an adjustable stand that includes a precision level and an overflow glass draw plate.
The cups without handles can be supplied separately or with an adjustable stand that includes a precision level and an overflow glass draw plate.

Accessories
Today’s business world brings new challenges that demand innovative solutions. Fungilab’s aim, as a leading viscosity technology company, is to become an expertise partner in the viscosity world to offer you our best products and services.
To provide you and your customers with this necessary attention and an expertise support, Fungilab offers a wide range of products for the measuring of the kinematic viscosity of your products.
Our kinematic series include: the Höppler viscometer (falling ball), for the measurement of the low viscosity liquids in all industries; capillary viscometer series and baths, in accordance to ASTM and DIN methods, to obtain the most accurate viscosity of your liquids; and flow cup viscometers, suitable for paints, inks, varnishes and similar products.
Kinematic viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow under the influence of gravity. It’s defined as the ratio of the fluid’s dynamic (absolute) viscosity to its density. In other words, it describes how thick or thin a fluid is without the involvement of any external force except gravity.
