A stator for a sensitive rotating viscometer is directly connected to the viscometer module housing or the viscometer module lower housing (rotor housing) particularly on lower portions or about a side of the same. The stator connector can employ the bayonet-attachment principle, where a suitable stator is inserted into the connector and, with a twist of the inserted stator, is attached to the connector. The stator can include a hollow tube housing having an open top and a closed bottom, with a wide lip extending outwardly and generally normal to the tube housing at the top of the tube housing, and may have a stator retaining hole in the lip. Lip ears may be present in conjunction with or separately from a lip extension. Gas entry and exit orifices may be present in a side wall of the housing.
