Make fast on-site maintenance decisions with Parker’s Heated Viscometer.


Accurate oil viscosity results in minutes.

The Parker Heated Viscometer


provides a condition monitoring
tool that enables you to make
informed operational and
maintenance decisions about your
critical plant and equipment. Fuel

cost element in the operation of
almost all industrial machinery
and engines; the quality must be
