Product Overview
The A1010 Kinematic Viscometer is a high-precision laboratory instrument specially designed for measuring the kinematic viscosity of petroleum products, lubricating oils, transformer oils, hydraulic fluids, diesel, fuel oil, base oils, and other liquid samples.
The instrument fully complies with ASTM D445, GB/T 265, GB 11137, GB/T 1995, and GB/T 1660, making it an ideal testing solution for petroleum laboratories, lubricant manufacturers, oil analysis centers, universities, research institutes, and industrial quality control departments.
Kinematic viscosity is one of the most critical physical properties for evaluating oil grade, lubricant performance, product consistency, and machinery protection performance. Accurate viscosity testing helps users select suitable lubricants, reduce friction loss, improve mechanical efficiency, and extend the service life of industrial equipment.
The A1010 adopts an advanced PID temperature control system, intelligent timing module, and automatic viscosity calculation function to ensure highly stable, accurate, and repeatable test results. Its 4-capillary tube design allows simultaneous testing of multiple samples, significantly improving laboratory throughput and testing efficiency.

Working Principle
The A1010 Kinematic Viscometer determines the kinematic viscosity of petroleum products and lubricating oils by measuring the time required for a liquid sample to flow through a calibrated capillary viscometer tube under precisely controlled temperature conditions.
The final viscosity value is automatically calculated by multiplying the capillary constant by the average flow time, ensuring high accuracy, excellent repeatability, and compliance with ASTM D445 testing requirements.
This proven testing method is widely used in petroleum laboratories, lubricant manufacturers, transformer oil testing, and international oil quality control systems.
Optional Capillary Tubes
The A1010 is supplied with a standard Pinkevitch viscometer tube and can also be configured with optional:
- Ubbelohde tubes
- Fenske tubes
- Reverse-flow tubes
This flexible design allows laboratories to adapt the system to different viscosity ranges and testing standards.
