BROOKFIELD DIAL READING VISCOMETER / VISCOMETER BROOKFIELD ANALOG LVT - RVT - HAT - HBT

The Original Standard in Viscosity Measurement Since 1934

Dial Reading Viscometer has been a trusted lab standard worldwide since its inception in 1934. The latest models have been upgraded with a multi-speed electronic drive and an ergonomically designed speed control knob, making the selection of any one of the 10 pre-set speeds (8 speeds on LVT models) quick and easy. This direct drive design offers extremely quiet operation, increased versatility, and compatibility with global power sources, ensuring reliable performance across diverse applications.
