Viscosity Measurement
1. Turn on Power switch on the SVM 3000. The switch is located at the back left side of the
instrument.
2. The SVM 3000 conducts a self-test. Examine the first Measuring window. It displays,
(a) dynamic viscosity, (b) kineatic viscosity, and (c) raw density. Make cetain that the density
(raw) reads 0.0011 gm/cm3 for air. If not, see your laboratory instructor.
3. Get an aliquot of the material into a disposable syringe. Make certain there are NO BUBBLES!
