Summary of Practice4.1 Two or more master viscometers, having calibrationconstants in the 0.001 mm2/s2to 0.003 mm2/s2range, arecalibrated with water at 20 C.The kinematic viscosities of twoor more oil standards are measu

Corrections are made for buoyancy and,where necessary, for temperature and surface tension.4.2 Athird master viscometer, with a calibration constant of0.003 mm2/s2to 0.009 mm2/s2, is then calibrated at 40 C withthe two standard oils and its calibration fac

20、tor calculated atstandard conditions for water at 20 C. In like manner addi-tional viscosity oil standards and additional master viscometersare calibrated at 40 C using the average results from at leasttwo master viscometers or two oil standards. Steps betweensuccessive calibration constants or visc

21、osities increase by afactor of three or less until the desired viscosity range iscovered.4.3 Oils are calibrated at other temperatures using theaverage result from at least two master viscometers.5. Significance and Use5.1 Because there are surface tension or kinematic viscositydifferences, or both,

22、 between the primary standard (7.4) andkinematic viscosity standards (7.5), special procedures usingmaster viscometers are required to “step-up” from the kine-matic viscosity of the primary standard to the kinematicviscosities of oil standards.5.2 Using master viscometers calibrated according to thi

23、spractice, an operator can calibrate kinematic viscometers inaccordance with Specifications D446.5.3 Using viscosity oil standards established in this practice,an operator can calibrate kinematic viscometers in accordancewith Specifications D446.6.

However astandard platinum resistance thermometer (SPRT) is prefer-able.(2) Meeting Class A requirements of Guide E2877 prefer-ably with a minimum display resolution of 0.001 C.(3) A combined (display and probe) accuracy of 67mK(0.007 C) at a 95 % confidence level over intended

28、calibration laboratory with a demonstratedcompetency in temperature calibration traceable to a nationalcalibration or metrology standards body.(7) The calibration report shall include data for the series oftest points which are appropriate for the range of intended use.(8) If the DCT display unit (m

29、easuring instrument such asa bridge) is calibrated separate from the probe, it should becalibrated annually.6.2.1.1 The DCT probe is to be immersed by more than itsminimum immersion depth in a constant temperature bath sothat the center of the probes sensing region is at the same levelas the lower h

The end of the probessheath shall not extend past the bottom of the viscometerslower reservoir.NOTE 1With respect to DCT probe immersion depth, a procedure isavailable in Test Methods E644, Section 7, for determining the

With respect to an ice bath, Practice E563 provides guidance on thepreparation of an ice bath however variance from the specific steps ispermitted provided preparation is consistent as it is being used to trackchange in calibration.6.2.1.2 Verify the calibration at least annually. The

Verification can beaccomplished with the use of a water triple point cell, an icebath or other suitable constant temperature device which has aknown temperature value of suitable precision. S

If using an ice bath, the ice pointreading is to be taken within 60 min after the thermometer hasbeen at test temperature for at least 3 min. If the correctedtem

The efficiency of stirring and the balance between heatloss

40、 and input must be such that the temperature of the waterdoes not vary by more than 60.01 C over the length of theviscometer or from one viscometer position to another. Theworking section of the bath should be shielded from directradiation from heaters and lights. A standard platinum resis-tance the

41、rmometer, approximately 450 mm in length, may beused to ensure that the variation in temperature does not exceed60.01 C. Firm supports should be provided to hold the masterviscometer in a rigid and reproducible position within 015 min of vertical.6.4 TimerA spring-wound, electric, or digital timer c
