Viscosity Flow Cups DIN

Practical viscosity measurement for paints, inks, and lacquers. DIN viscosity cup of 100 ml, made of anodized aluminum with a stainless steel flow sleeve.

The DIN viscosity cup accurately measures the viscosity of dense liquids, ensuring quality control in industrial processes and paint and varnish production.

The DIN viscosity cup measures the time a fluid takes to flow through a standardized orifice. The thicker the liquid, the longer it takes, providing a fast, reliable, and standardized viscosity test according to DIN 53224.

Key features of the DIN cup

  • Precise viscosity measurement: Ideal for high-viscosity liquids.
  • Complies with DIN 53224: Ensures standardized and reproducible results.
  • Robust design: Made with high-quality materials for long-lasting performance.
  • Industrial applications: Perfect for quality control in paints, varnishes, and coatings.
  • Optional certification: SER-CE034 ENAC Calibration Certificate to ensure traceability.

DIN cup with handle 

  • Designed for industrial environments and continuous production.
  • Facilitates quick mounting and improves ergonomics during measurements.
  • Reduces setup time and makes testing more comfortable for operators.

Comparison with other viscosity cups

While the DIN viscosity cup is widely used in industry, other options may be better suited for different needs:

  • UNE ISO cup: Ideal for measuring low- to medium-viscosity fluids, commonly used in laboratories and quality control tests.
  • Ford cup: Perfect for measuring viscosity in inks and low-viscosity fluids.
  • Zahn cup: Especially used for low-viscosity liquids, providing fast and easy measurements.

Each cup type has its advantages, and the choice depends on the fluid characteristics and your production process requirements.

Tip: Selection depends on liquid viscosity and application type: DIN is optimal for high-viscosity liquids and industrial environments, while Ford, UNE ISO, or Zahn are better suited for more fluid liquids or laboratory measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What type of liquids are measured with the DIN cup?
High-viscosity liquids, such as dense paints, varnishes, and industrial coatings.

Do each of the cups comply with different standards?
Yes:

  • DIN → DIN 53224
  • UNE ISO → UNE EN ISO 2431
  • Ford → ASTM D1200
  • Zahn → ASTM D4212

What is the difference between the DIN cup with handle and without handle?

  • With handle: Quick mounting, more comfortable for continuous production.
  • Without handle: More compact and practical for laboratories or occasional measurements.
