New Density Meter with Extremely Small Sample Quantity

A.Kruess Optronic GmbH (Germany) now presents its latest novelty: a digital density meter, which only requires 0,3 ml of sample quantity! Additionally the density meter surpasses others with a measuring accuracy never seen before: in the measuring range of 0.00000 – 1.99999 g/cm³ the measuring accuracy is 0.00005 g/cm³. Whether you want to measure density, specific gravity or the concentration of liquid solutions: by this highly precise measuring instrument you receive results with 5 digits behind the comma. And even better; you receive your measuring result in only 1 second! Behind these improvements stands a new-developed micromechanical measuring cell which needs only 80 μl of sample volume and provides an integrated temperature measurement of the sample. A built-in Peltier thermostate ensures a precisely regulated temperature with a repeatability of +/- 0.02 °C. Naturally the density meter possesses a calibration certificate in accordance with N.I.S.T. density standard. It is particularly suitable for application fields in the GLP/GMP range.

The user-friendly touch-screen operates in 6 languages. The measured data can be exported e.g. in Excel format on a USB stick. Other interfaces are RS232 and Ethernet. LIMS and printer connections are integrated. Customized measuring methods are programmable (990 methods), 9 of which are already preset in order to make this instrument even more user-friendly. The SQL data base thus stores and controls
999 results for you. An individual user management with separate passwords can be programmed. The device can be used in a widespread range, e.g. for determination of mixing ratios, quality and quantity
controls. Operational areas for the new density meter are to be found in the chemical industry, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry, breweries and beverage manufacturers, pulp and paper industry, electronic industry,
petrochemical industry and waste water management. Highly precise density measurements can now be accomplished quicky and simply with low sample costs – whilst improving ease of work and results at the same time. Kruss Optronic GmbH.
