2.3 AFTER THE TEST
Clean the gauge and all equipment.
Do not use wire brushes, metal scrapers,
metal files or other metallic tools for
cleaning.
After cleaning, ensure that all materials are removed and that the instrument is dry.
3 CONVERTING TO VISCOSITY
The measured kinematic viscosity is expressed generally in seconds (s) flow time, which can be converted
to Centistokes (cSt).
To convert from flow time (s) to kinematic viscosity (cSt), use the Elcometer 2400 Viscosity
Disc - see "Related equipment" on page 12.
Alternatively, use the following formula:
V = K(t - c)
where
V = kinematic viscosity in cSt (mm²/s)
t = flow time in seconds
Clean the gauge and all equipment using a
suitable solvent only.
