DV-I Prime

Our low cost continuous sensing Digital Viscometer now with timed measurement function

Product Description

DV-I Prime Digital

A continuous sensing capability for rapid viscosity measurement makes this economical digital viscometer a standout. Measures viscosity and temperature simultaneously (with an optional temperature probe). With its timed measurement function, data can easily be sent to a PC or printer. Optional software allows the DV-I Prime to collect, analyze and record test data.
