MiniAV-HT High Temperature Kinematic Viscometer
The MiniAV-HT is a fully automated, benchtop viscometer, precisely determining asphalt kinematic viscosity at 60°C and 135°C. With a Ubbelohde-style tube covering a 100-fold viscosity range (0.5 to 10,000 mm²/s), it meets AASHTO T201, ASTM D2170, and ASTM D445 precision requirements. Operating between 40°C and 150°C, it ensures accurate results. This trusted CANNON platform offers reliability, including a sample preheater and heated waste lines. Automation reduces manual testing effort, with VISCPRO® PC software managing up to four instruments. The compact design, fitting in the space of an analytical balance, enhances convenience. It cuts solvent usage by 50%, reduces maintenance costs, and simplifies tube replacement, making it an efficient solution.

- Viscosity range: 0.5 mm²/s (cSt) to 10,000 mm²/s (cSt) in 100-fold increments
- A well tested CANNON viscometer platform offers reliability and dependable support
- Includes adjustable sample preheater and heated waste lines
Simple, automated benchtop testing
- Automation provides an alternative to labor-intensive manual testing and reduces operator to operator variability
- VISCPRO® PC software enables one PC to manage and control up to four instruments
- User-configurable reports may be viewed, printed, saved and exported
- Up to 12 determinations/hour
Compact, convenient design
- Modular bath for easy maintenance access
- System fits in roughly the same benchtop area as an analytical balance
Reduced maintenance and consumable costs
- Ubbelohde-style tube reduces solvent usage and disposal costs by 50%
- Operators physically replace tubes in minutes, eliminating the need for related service calls
- Single-point temperature calibration allows calibration at a single relevant test temperature and avoids the need for tube recalibration at other temperatures
