The Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup is a dip-type flow cup for quick viscosity measurements on site or during production. Viscosity controls how a paint, varnish or similar product flows, sprays and levels, so confirming it before or during use helps keep a batch within specification and avoids application faults that come from material that is too thick or too thin.
The Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup is a conventional cylindrical cup with a needle fixed into the bottom. The cup is dipped into the product, then allowed to empty through the escape hole. Unlike other flow cups, the flow time is taken at the moment the point of the needle appears as the liquid level drops, which gives a clear, repeatable end point for the timing.
The Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup suits production-floor and field use where a fast viscosity check is needed. It is used in paint and ink manufacturing and coatings quality control. The Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup is supplied by BAMR, South Africa's authorised Elcometer distributor.
Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup
The Elcometer 2215 Lory Viscosity Cup is a conventional cylindrical cup with a needle fixed into the bottom for quick measurements on-site or during production. The cup is first dipped into the product to be measured, then empties through the escape hole. Unlike other Viscosity cups, the flow time is measured as soon as the point of the needle appears.

Frequently asked questions
What is the viscosity measurement range of the Elcometer 2215?
The cup measures viscosity from 50 to 1,100 cSt, covering the range required for most standard coating applications.
What makes the Elcometer 2215 different from a standard viscosity cup?
The needle is fixed into the bottom of the cup, and flow time is measured as soon as the needle point appears. This unique design enables faster readings compared to cups where you wait for complete emptying.
Can the Elcometer 2215 be used during production?
Yes. The cup is designed for quick measurements on-site or during production, making it suitable for rapid viscosity checks without pausing the workflow.
How do you use the Elcometer 2215 to measure viscosity?
Dip the cup into the product being measured. As the cup empties through an escape hole, measure the flow time from the moment the needle point becomes visible.
