miniAV® is a fully automated, singlesample, benchtop viscometer for D445 testing. The Ubbelohde-style tube covers a 100-
fold viscosity range at values between 0.5 mm2/s (cSt) and 10,000 mm2/s (cSt) from 15 °C to 100 °C (with available TE
cooler).
D445 precision in a compact, robust design
Temperature range: ambient to 100°C (15°C to 100°C with available TE cooler)
Viscosity range: 0.5 mm2/s (cSt) to 10,000 mm2/s (cSt)* in 100-fold increments (easily covering the range of 5 separate manual glass viscometers)
Fits in roughly the same benchtop area as an analytical balance
Optional, environmentally friendly Peltier cooling requires no external refrigeration
A well tested CANNON viscometer platform offers reliability and dependable support
Fully automated benchtop testing
Automation provides an alternative to labor-intensive manual testing and reduces operator to operator variability
Up to 12 determinations/hour
VISCPRO®PC software enables one PC to manage and control up to four instruments
User-configurable reports may be viewed, printed, saved and exported
Reduced consumable costs
ASTM D446/ISO 3105 Ubbelohde-style tube reduces solvent usage and disposal costs by 50%
Automated vial washing and drying enables reuse and reduces vial consumption
Simplified maintenance & test versatility
Modular bath for easy maintenance access
Operators physically replace tubes in minutes, eliminating the need for related service calls
Single-point temperature calibration avoids tube recalibration costs and maximizes flexibility
Instrument includes standard dual-solvent input
