Anton Paar's SVM 1001 and SVM 1001 Simple Fill: Automatic, affordable kinematic viscosity measurements

Anton Paar’s SVM 1001 and SVM 1001 Simple Fill budget-friendly kinematic viscometers are an entry ticket into the world of digital automatic kinematic viscometry.

Both models come with an unbreakable measuring cell, for a wide variety of samples - without the need for a stopwatch, liquid bath for temperature control, or additional glass capillaries - across a broad viscosity range.

Automatic measurement and calculation of results eliminates errors due to incorrect measurement or manual transcription and calculation. Integrated Peltier temperature control removes the need for a thermostatting bath, bath liquid, or separated thermometer. With a single measuring cell, the SVM 1001 series covers a 0.3 mm²/s to 5,000 mm²/s range - usually requiring 10 or more Ubbelohde-type capillaries.

The kinematic viscometers deliver fully ASTM-compliant results, in both D7042 and D445. In comparison to manual glass capillary viscometers, the SVM 1001 series has 150% higher throughput while consuming 95% less energy (50 W instead of 1,000 W) and 75% less solvent (10 mL instead of 40 mL). This significantly reduces not only operational costs, but also environmental footprint.

SVM 1001 Simple Fill’s unique funnel filling system enables direct filling of a sample from the sample container, cutting out consumable costs for pipettes or syringes.
