The Cannon CAV 4.1 is a fully automated, single-bath benchtop viscometer designed for high-throughput kinematic viscosity testing of transparent and opaque liquids. With two 14-position sample handlers, it enables unattended processing of up to 24 determinations per hour. Each Ubbelohde-style tube covers a wide viscosity range from 0.5 mm²/s (cSt) to 10,000 mm²/s (cSt), with temperature control from 40 °C to 150 °C (down to 20 °C with optional bath cooler). Compact and efficient, the CAV 4.1 conserves bench space while maintaining the precision and versatility expected from Cannon instruments.
