Oil Analysis Viscosity Analysis

MiniVisc 3000

Part Number: Q3000
The MiniVisc 3000 is a groundbreaking portable kinematic viscometer that delivers laboratory-grade viscosity measurements using only 60 µL (3–4 drops) of fluid. Featuring a patented split-cell design and integrated temperature control at 40 °C, it offers fast, solvent-free testing directly in the field or workshop. Its rugged, battery-powered construction enables over 6 hours of continuous operation, making it ideal for machine condition monitoring and quality control across industrial, transportation, and energy sectors
Minimal Sample Volume & Split‑Cell Design
Uses just 60 µL of oil in a patented split-cell funnel, facilitating quick, precise measurements and easy cleaning with a non-abrasive pad between samples
High Accuracy & ASTM Compliance
Provides accurate 40 °C kinematic viscosity readings with ± 3% RSD in the 10–350 cSt range (MiniVisc 3000) and extended ± 5% up to 700 cSt (MiniVisc 3050), fully compliant with ASTM D8092
Solvent‑Free & Portable
Operates without solvents—eco-friendly, low-cost, and user-friendly. Battery-powered for over 6 hours of on‑field use and recharges in ~2.5 hours
Fast, Lab‑Quality Results
Generates quick and accurate results from a few drops, even with dark or sooty samples, matching lab-grade performance in rugged environments
Easy Data Handling
Equipped with a touchscreen interface and USB connectivity for data export via ViscTrack or AMS Oilview software, ensuring seamless data management
