PDV portable rotational viscometers

PDV portable, battery-powered rotational viscometers for viscosity measurements in the field and on the production line — a range up to 1,200,000 mPa·s (HPDV-1), ±2% accuracy and 8 hours of battery life. Four spindles and a lithium battery as standard.
- Battery power — up to 8 hours of fieldwork
- Three models — range up to 1,200,000 mPa·s (HPDV-1)
- ±2% accuracy across the range, ±1% repeatability
- Four spindles (B1–B4), 4 speeds (60–200 rpm)
- Optional laboratory stand and comfort-improving handle
PDV portable, battery-powered rotational viscometers enable fast, accurate viscosity measurements not only in the laboratory but also in factories and production plants — at individual stages of production. It is a solution where the sample cannot or should not be moved to a benchtop viscometer.
Mobility without losing accuracy
Every PDV viscometer has a lithium battery giving up to 8 hours of operation, so you can check viscosity directly on the line. ±2% accuracy across the range and ±1% repeatability ensure reliable results in production conditions too. The unit suits measuring paints, adhesives, solvents, oils, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food products.
Three ranges to choose from
The family includes the LPDV-1, RPDV-1 and HPDV-1, differing in measuring range — from 25 to 1,200,000 mPa·s on the HPDV-1. Four spindles (B1–B4), an AC-DC power supply and a battery are supplied as standard; optionally the unit can be fitted with a laboratory stand and an extra handle. For benchtop measurements with a wider range, the NTV-S series is intended. Write to us.
