FAQs
What is the shelf life of the Visco Check Standard Fluids?
The fluids typically offer a shelf life of up to 12 months from the date of bottling. The user should always consult the Certificate of Analysis provided with the batch for the exact validity and expiration date.
What does “Newtonian fluid” mean for a viscosity standard?
A Newtonian fluid is defined as a fluid whose viscosity remains constant regardless of the shear rate (or rotor speed) applied during the measurement. This stability makes them the ideal and reliable material for validating viscometer performance.
Can these standards be used on viscometers from other manufacturers?
Yes, these are universal viscosity standards. They are suitable for the calibration, verification, and qualification of any brand of rotational, capillary, or kinematic viscometer requiring a traceable reference fluid.
At what temperatures are the certified viscosity values provided?
The certified viscosity values are typically provided for multiple standard measurement temperatures, such as 20 °C, 25 °C, 40 °C, and 100 °C. Users must ensure they use the certified value that exactly corresponds to their actual testing temperature.
Why are standard fluids necessary if the viscometer is new?
Standard fluids are essential for Instrument Qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) and daily Performance Verification. They provide an independent check to confirm that the instrument is operating within its specified accuracy and repeatability tolerances.
