Whatever your Sample – Density Meters Deliver the Results

Anton Paar (Austria) is a supplier of many different density meters ranging from portable, explosion-proof and compact mobile devices up to high-end equipment with either glass or Hastelloy C276 measuring cells. The broad portfolio includes numerous application-specific accessories covering a huge variety of measuring scenarios. There is a density meter for every requirement:

• Sample quantity: precise measurements either based on manual filling or fully automatic filling by modern sample filling equipment.
• Sample diversity: from low-viscosity samples to samples which are solid at room temperature. Anton Paar’s DMA density meters measure liquid samples at temperatures from -10 °C up to 200 °C and immediately convert the measured result to the target reference temperature.
• Sample site: density measurement on platforms, at airports, in mobile labs, from tankers or in laboratories.
• Sample purpose: highly accurate results with an accuracy ranging from 1 kg/m³ up to 0.005 kg/m³.

For final QC and product specification of lubes, fuel and diesel

Product characterisation, quality control of final product specifications and mass-to-volume conversion based on density measurement has never been so easy. Anton Paar’s high-end density meter DMA 5000 M (ASTM D4052, D5002) directly measures the density and API gravity with outstanding precision which makes it ideal for refined products such as diesel fuel.

For QC and blending checks on fuels

The intrinsically safe portable density meter DMA 35 Ex Petrol (ASTM D7777) quickly checks the quality of fuels throughout the whole supply chain. It is used on-site whenever fuels are loaded or unloaded and for blending checks.

For QC checks on lubes

The compact DMA 500 density meter measures the API density, API gravity or API SG of lubes. It fits in the smallest of spaces in the lab and can be used outside the traditional lab space thanks to a battery life of up to 6 hours. Measurement temperatures of up to 40 °C ensure easy handling of highly viscous samples.

For mass calculation of asphalt and bitumen

DMA 4200 M (ASTM D4052, D5002) measures the density and specific gravity of asphalt, asphalt binders and bitumen at elevated temperatures up to 200 °C. The measurement is 10 times faster than using a pycnometer and guarantees that the buyer obtains the correct mass of asphalt.
