SAVE MONEY WITH f THEHOEPPLER f Here's an instrument that pays for it self over and over again! H o w ? By assisting in product development and manufacture — and by eliminating costly e r r o r s i n viscosity control. o n t h e falling-ball Operating principle, the H o e p p l e r Viscosimeter has an accuracy of 0 . 1 % t o 0 . 5 % . Even gases as well as liquids, oils, plastics, syrups, viscous tars, etc., can be measured. Only a small sample (30cc) is required, a n d results are consistent and reproducible. T h e Hoeppler Viscosimeter is n o w serving manufacturers in many fields — food, chemical, ceramic, plastic, etc. It belongs i n any laboratory where viscosity is a factor i n the manufacture o r sale of a product.
