Features & Benefits

Precise and accurate temperature control

  • Temperature range: 20 °C to 100 °C ± 0.01 °C*
  • Temperature selection is variable between 20 °C and 100 °C or selectable at ten pre-set temperatures (20 °C, 25 °C, 30° C,
    40 °C, 50 °C, 60 °C, 70 °C, 80 °C, 90 °C, and 100 °C)
  • Meets ASTM D445 temperature sensitivity requirements for kinematic viscosity determination
  • Motor driven stirrer ensures a uniform bath temperature

Safe operation

  • Bath thermistor senses over-temperature fault and removes power
  • Thermistor disconnection results in removal of bath heater power
  • Liquid level sensor prevents operation if bath liquid is not at a safe operating level

Efficient, user-friendly design

  • Seven glass viscometer ports (each 2” in diameter) and two thermometer ports (each 0.4” in diameter) allow up to 7 simultaneous viscosity determinations**
  • Two electric heating elements quickly heat bath media to the selected temperature
  • Stainless steel baffle provides a plain reflective viewing background
  • Convenient drawer provides easy access to electrical controls

Reliable performance

  • Well tested CANNON bath platform offers reliability and dependable support
  • All wetted components are manufactured from high quality stainless steel or glass
  • The heavy duty aluminum frame offers a corrosion-resistant epoxy finish

* Test temperatures < 40 °C and high ambient temperature test environments require an optional bath cooler
** Other port configurations are available as a special order
