Nominal or approximate values are listed in the following tables. Standards are calibrated to a precision of ☐.2% for the viscosity and kinematic viscosity. All standards are traceable to National Standards and are manufactured and certified according to ASTM D2162, the internationally recognized primary method for viscosity reference standards, under ISO/IEC17025 guidelines. All viscosity standards are based upon the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) value of 1.0034 cSt (Centistokes) for water at 20☌ (68☏).
Koehler viscosity reference standards are used for calibration and verification of kinematic and dynamic viscosity test equipment, both manual and automatic.
