Ubbelohde viscometers are for use with transparent liquids. Unlike the Cannon-Fenske Routine viscometer, suspended level viscometers possess the same viscometer constant at all temperatures. This property is advantageous when measurements are to be made at a number of different temperatures. Cannon has improved the design of the Ubbelohde viscometer to make a more rugged instrument called the Cannon-Ubbelohde viscometer. Other suspended level viscometers include the BS/IP/SL, BS/IP/SL(S), and BS/IP/MSL viscometers.

Calibrated UB Series
For measurement of kinematic viscosity of transparent Newtonian liquids by suspended level principle as described in ASTM D 445 and D 446, and ISO 3104 and 3105. Similar to Cannon-Ubbelohde but less rugged in design.

UBC Unity Factor Series
Constant within +/- 0.2% of approximate constant.
Provided with certificate of calibration and instruction sheet.
Minimum sample volume 11mL. Required liquid bath depth of 241 mm (9.5 in).

* 300 sec minimum flow time. All other sizes have flow times of 200 to 1000 seconds.
