The automated CANNON D155 offers a low-cost, affordable alternative to manual hydrometer methods for measuring density and specific gravity with easy, one button operation. Built-in thermal control provides quick, precise measurement with 4 decimal resolution. Meets requirements of ASTM D1250, ASTM D1298, ASTM D4052 and ASTM D7777.
Common applications include Petrochemical (solvents, fuels, fuel oils, lubricants, crude oil), Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics and Food and beverages.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Precision and accuracy in space-saving design
- Compact and lightweight oscillation-type densitometer measures density, specific gravity and API degrees
- Built-in, stable thermal control enables quick and precise density/specific gravity measurement with 4 decimal resolution
- Meets requirements of ASTM D1250, ASTM D1298, ASTM D4052 and ASTM D7777
Simple, automated operation
- Easy, one button operation replace manual hydrometer methods and delivers results in ~2 to 4 minutes
- Automates the entire testing process from sample injection (if using optional peristaltic pump), to temperature equilibrium to final density measurement
- Introduction of the next sample flushes previous sample residual and eliminates the need for flushing solvents
- Instrument is calibrated with pure water*
Versatile
- Tests sample with maximum viscosities of ~1000 mPa·s (cSt)
- Sampling performed manually by direct injection into the test cell or automatically via use of the optional peristaltic pump
- Results may be output via the RS-232C port, stored on a USB storage device or printed to the optional DOT matrix printer
- Internal memory retains results from the last 10 measurements
* Factory calibration is performed with air
