Product Description

The Labmart L MKV3 Krebs Viscometer is a rotational viscometer designed specifically for measuring the viscosity of paints, coatings and ink using the traditional Krebs method. It provides direct Krebs readings on an LCD display in KU, grams and centipoise (cP), with a constant 200 rpm spindle speed, RS232C interface and easy lower-handle operation.

3. Detailed Product Description

Product Overview

The LMKV3 Krebs Viscometer is a laboratory rotational viscometer designed for viscosity measurement of fluids, particularly paints, coatings and ink.

The catalogue describes the instrument as being based on the traditional KREBS method, using a weight-driven rotating paddle to sense paint viscosity at a constant 200 rpm.

The L MKV3 provides direct viscosity readings in Krebs Units (KU), grams (g) and centipoise (cP). It incorporates an LCD display and RS232C interface. The catalogue also specifies an easy-to-use lower handle to activate the instrument.
