I. INTRODUCTION
e Brookeld DV1 Viscometer series has provided exceptional value for viscometer users since its
introduction in 1981. Brookeld has continued to develop and improve the DV1 to maintain its position
in the market as the best value for Q/C applications. e Brookeld DV1 Viscometer continues in this
tradition of innovation, quality and value. e incorporation of a large graphical display and “Hot Keys”
has allowed for a new and improved user interface that preserves single speed data collection methods
(or multiple speeds when using Wingather SQ), which makes using the DV1 Viscometer easier than
ever before.
e Brookeld DV1 Viscometer measures uid viscosity which is a measure of a uid’s resistance to
ow. You will nd a detailed description of the science of viscosity in the Brookeld publication “More
Solutions to Sticky Problems”, a copy of which was included with your DV1.
e principle of operation of the DV1 is to drive a spindle (which is immersed in the test uid) through
a calibrated spring. e viscous drag of the uid against the spindle is measured by the spring deection.
Spring deection is measured with a rotary transducer. is system provides continuous sensing and
display of the measurement during the entire test. e measurement range of a DV1 (in centipoise
or milliPascal-seconds) is determined by the rotational speed of the spindle, the size and shape of the
spindle, the container the spindle is rotating in, and the full-scale torque of the calibrated spring.
ere are four basic spring torque series oered by Brookeld:
Spring Torque
Model dyne•cm milli Newton•m
DV1MLV 673.7 0.0673
DV1MRV 7,187.0 0.7187
DV1MHA 14,374.0 1.4374
DV1MHB 57,496.0 5.7496
e higher the torque calibration, the higher the measurement range. e viscosity measurement range
for each torque calibration may be found in Appendix B.
e DV1 is congured to accept an optional temperature probe, which allows temperature readout over
the range -100°C to +300°C (-148°F to + 572°F). is option allows ambient temperature measurement
or temperature measurement of the sample during viscosity testing. Contact Brookeld or your local
Brookeld dealer for more information on this instrument option.
All units of measurement are displayed according to either the CGS system or the SI system.
1. Viscosity appears in units of centipoise (shown as “cP”) or milliPascal-seconds (shown as
mPa•s) on the DV1 Viscometer display.
2. Torque appears in units of dyne-centimeters or Newton-meters (shown as percent “%”)
in both cases) on the DV1 Viscometer display.
Tp
3. Temperature appears in units of Celsius (shown as C) or Fahrenheit (shown as F) on the
DV1 Viscometer display.
e following applies to DV1 Viscometers when using an optional temperature probe. Look for the
symbol
Tp
throughout this manual for instructions pertaining specically to DV1 Viscometers with
temperature probe option.

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 6 Manual No. M14-023
e equivalent units of measurement in the SI system are calculated using the following conversions:
SI CGS
Viscosity: 1 mPa•s = 1 cP
Torque: 1 Newton•m = 107 dyne•cm
References to viscosity throughout this manual are done in CGS units. e DV1 Viscometer provides
equivalent information in SI units.

Make sure the instrument is in a clean, dry working environment (dust-free, moderate
temperature, low humidity, etc.)
Make sure the instrument is on a level surface.
Hands/ngers must be clean and free of residual sample. Not doing so may result in
deposit build up on the upper part of the sha and cause interference between the
sha and the pivot cup.
Be sure to remove spindle from the instrument prior to cleaning. Note le-hand
thread. Severe instrument damage may result if spindle is cleaned in place.
Instrument, Keypad and Display: When not using the keypad protector, clean with dry,
non-abrasive cloth. Do not use solvents or cleaners.
Immersed Components: Spindles and guard leg are made of stainless steel. Clean with
non-abrasive cloth and solvent appropriate for sample material
that is not aggressive to stainless steel.
When cleaning spindles, do not apply excessive force, which may result in bending
the spindle sha.

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 14 Manual No. M14-023
II. GETTING STARTED
II.1 Power Up
e DV1 Viscometer will go through a Power Up sequence when the power is turned on. e
viscometer will present a blue screen for approximately 4 seconds and then the About Screen for
5 seconds. e About Screen is shown below and includes several critical parameters about the
viscometer including: viscometer torque (LV, RV, HA, HB, or other), and the rmware version number.
Figure II-1
e About Screen can also be accessed through the Options Menu (see Section II.8)
e DV1 Viscometer will automatically transition from the About Screen to the AutoZero Screen.
TIP:When contacting Brookeld or your authorized Brookeld dealer for technical support
or repair services, please record the information on the About Screen and the serial
number (found on the serial tag located on the back of the instrument head) in any
correspondence or shipping paperwork.
II.2 AutoZero
e DV1 Viscometer must perform an AutoZero prior to making viscosity measurements. is
process sets the zero reading for the measurement system. e AutoZero will be performed every
time the instrument is turned on. It is not necessary to perform an AutoZero before each test.
Proper AutoZero function requires that the viscometer be level (see Section I.5) and that the spindle
be removed from the coupling sha. Additionally, any spindle coupling or extension links used
with accessory devices should be removed from the coupling sha. e DV1 display presents a
reminder screen to remove the spindle. e operator must press the NEXT hot key (see Section
II.3) to initiate the AutoZero. Upon completion, the DV1 presents a reminder to re-attach the
spindle. e operator must press the NEXT hot key to proceed.
TIP:Do not touch the viscometer during the AutoZero process to ensure the best zero value.
TIP:e AutoZero sets the zero point of the viscometer range. A failure to properly level
the viscometer or to remove the spindle may aect the zero value and all measurement
results.

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 15 Manual No. M14-023
II.3Navigaon
e DV1 Viscometer uses a 3-inch monochromatic display with keypad. All user input is made
through the keypad. See Section I.7 for a description of Key Functions.
Hot Keys are used on the DV1 Viscometer to assist with menu navigation. ere are three Hot
Keys located immediately under the viscometer display. e function of each key is indicated at
the bottom of the display and may change depending on the screen currently in view. e use of
Hot Keys allows the DV1 Viscometer to oer many menu choices while using a simple interface.
Possible Hot Key actions include:
NEXT: Proceed to the next screen.
BACK: Return to the previous screen.
HOME: Return to the Home screen.
SPINDLE: Enter spindle selection screen.
SPEED: Enter speed selection screen.
SELECT: Choose the currently displayed condition.

II.4 Home Screen
e DV1 Home screen is presented at the conclusion of AutoZero and can be accessed by selecting
a Hot Key marked as HOME. e Home screen shows the measurement parameters chosen by the
operator including: measured viscosity, temperature, %torque, motor status, spindle, and speed. e
available Hot Keys on the Home screen include: SPINDLE, OPTIONS, and SPEED (see Figure II-2).
Figure II-2
II.5SpindleSelecon
DV1MLV Viscometers are provided with a set of four spindles and a narrow guardleg; DV1MRV
Viscometers are provided with a set of six spindles and a wider guardleg; DV1MHA and DV1MHB
Viscometers come with a set of six spindles and no guardleg (see Appendix F for more information
on the guardleg).

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 16 Manual No. M14-023
e spindles are attached to the viscometer by screwing them onto the coupling nut on the lower sha
(see Figure II-3). Note that the spindles have a le-hand thread. e lower sha should be secured
and slightly lied with one hand while screwing the spindle to the le. e face of the spindle nut
and the matching surface on the lower sha should be smooth and clean to prevent eccentric rotation
of the spindle. Spindles can be identied by the number on the side of the spindle coupling nut.
e motor should be OFF whenever spindles are being removed or attached.
If your instrument has the EZ-Lock system, the spindles are attached as follows:
With one hand, hold the spindle, while gently raising the spring-loaded outer sleeve to its highest
position with the other hand, as shown in Figure II-4. Insert the EZ-Lock Spindle Coupling so that
the bottom of the coupling is ush with the bottom of the sha, and lower the sleeve. e sleeve
should easily slide back down to hold the spindle/coupling assembly in place for use. [Spindles
can be identied by entry code; look for the number on the side of the EZ-Lock spindle coupling.]
Figure II-3 Figure II-4
e motor should be OFF whenever spindles are being removed or attached.
NOTE:Keep the EZ-Lock Spindle Coupling and outer sleeve as clean as possible
and free from debris that could become lodged inside the adapter.

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 17 Manual No. M14-023
e DV1 requires a Spindle Entry Code number to calculate viscosity values. e two-digit code
for each spindle can be found in Appendix D.
Pressing the SPINDLE Hot Key on the Home screen will present the Set Spindle screen.
Figure II-5
Press the Up/Down Arrow keys to scroll through the list of available spindles. When the correct
spindle number is shown on the display, press the SELECT Hot Key. e display will return to the
Home screen.
e Set Spindle screen also includes the currently selected speed of rotation and the Full Scale Range
of viscosity (FSR). e FSR represents the maximum viscosity value that can be measured with the
currently selected spindle and speed combination. As the spindle number is changed, the FSR value
will change to show the new condition. Each spindle and speed combination has a unique FSR.
TIP:e minimum viscosity measurement range is 10% of the FSR.
TIP:Full Scale Range is the same value as AutoRange.
TIP:e accuracy of viscometer measurement is expressed as a percentage of the Full Scale
Range.
e Set Spindle screen includes three Hot Keys:
BACK: Return to the Home screen without changing the spindle selection.
SELECT: Accept the spindle selection and return to the Home screen.
SPEED: Accept the spindle selection and move to the Set Speed screen.

Brookeld Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Page 19 Manual No. M14-023
TIP:Speeds are grouped according to traditional LV and RV settings.
TIP:When setting a test procedure, be aware if the data must be compared to another site.
If a comparison is required, it is best to utilize speeds that are traditionally associated
with the torque range of the viscometer. is will ensure that all test sites will be able to
reproduce the test method exactly.
e Set Speed screen also includes the currently selected spindle and the Full Scale Range of viscosity
(FSR). e FSR represents the maximum viscosity value that can be measured with the currently
selected spindle and speed combination. As the speed is changed, the FSR value will change to reect
the new condition. Each spindle and speed combination has a unique FSR.
TIP:e minimum viscosity measurement range is 10% of the FSR.
TIP:Full Scale Range is the same value as AutoRange.
TIP:e accuracy of viscometer measurement is expressed as a percentage of the Full Scale
Range.
e Set Speed screen include three Hot Keys:
BACK: Return to the Home screen without changing the speed selection.
SELECT: Accept the speed selection and return to the Home screen.
SPEED: Accept the speed selection and move to the Set Spindle screen.
II.7FullScaleRange
e Full Scale Range (FSR) is a calculation of the maximum viscosity value that can be measured by
a spindle and speed combination when used with the specic spring torque of the DV1 Viscometer.
is value represents the measured viscosity which will be displayed when the instrument’s %torque
reading is at 100. e FSR will be displayed during the spindle selection process and the speed
selection process. e FSR value will change as the selected speed or spindle is changed and will be
displayed in the viscosity measurement units selected by the user in the Options Menu (see Section
II.8).
Brookeld recommends that viscosity measurements be made only when the instrument’s %torque
value is between 10 and 100. e FSR represents the maximum value that can be measured (100%
on the Torque scale). e minimum viscosity that can be measured is 10% of the FSR (equivalent
to 10 on the Torque scale).
e accuracy of the Brookeld viscometer is expressed as a percentage of the instrument’s Full Scale
Range. When using the standard LV (61-64) and RV (2-7) spindles, the instrument’s accuracy is
+/-1% of the Full Scale Range (see Section I.4).

e DV1 Viscometer provides an end condition for the viscosity measurement. e end condition
denes when the spindle will stop its rotation and a nal data point will be shown on the display.
e end condition currently in use on the DV1 can be identied by choosing RUN UNTIL in the
Options Menu. e end condition will be displayed on the screen along with the parameter value.
End conditions are dened in the table below:
End
Condition
Display
Name Parameter Range
Time Time Hours : Minutes : Seconds 00 hours : 00 minutes : 00 seconds to
99 hours : 99 minutes : 59 seconds
Torque Torq. % Torque 0 - 100
Temperature Temp. Degrees and Tolerance -100° - 300°C +/-5.0°C
Press the SELECT Hot Key while viewing the Run Until Options screen. is will present the Run
Until screen with the currently selected End Condition name underlined. Use the Arrow Keys to
change the End Condition selection. ree Hot Keys are available:
BACK: Exit the Run Until Options screen and return to the Options Menu.
SELECT: Accept the currently underlined End Condition and advance to the
Run Until parameter entry screen.
HOME: Return to the Home screen.
Run Until Time requires that a time value be selected. Time is entered by rst selecting hours (from
00 to 99) then minutes (from 00 to 99) and then seconds (from 00 to 59). Use the Arrow Keys to
adjust each parameter. Use the SELECT Hot Key to move from hours to minutes to seconds. Use
the BACK Hot Key to move back from seconds to minutes to hours. e time value is accepted by
pressing the SELECT Hot Key while on the seconds display.
TIP:Be sure to select a time value that provides sucient time to allow for equilibrium of the
torque sensor. A short time value may result in erroneous data if the torque sensor has
not achieved a stable deection for the measurement condition. Brookeld recommends
a minimum time value of 20 seconds. However, this can be reduced based on user
judgement by observing when the torque stabilizes.
