Sartorius Density Determination
The Optimum Equipment for All Methods
Whether you use the buoyancy technique,
the displacement principle or the pycnometer
method for determining solid, powdery or
liquid samples – Sartorius offers you the
technical equipment for performing these
applications simply, quickly and precisely.
This includes:
1. Micro-, analytical and precision balances.
2. The YDK01 or YDK01LP density kit
3. An integrated application program built
into the balance for density determination
(standard software in all ME and LA
balances).
Easy to use
Nothing is more annoying in laboratory
applications than complicated operating
sequences with delicate and sensitive
instruments. This is why our density kits
have been built to be especially rugged and
uncomplicated.
Perfected technology and practical
accessories
Large and easily accessible sample holders
are supplied so that you can perform measurements
in air or in a medium causing
buoyancy. The special design prevents
air bubbles from adhering, which could
otherwise distort your results.
The integrated application software
controls the measurements and evaluates
them for you.
The application software integrated into the
balances of the ME and LA series provides you
with the ultimate in user convenience.
Just select your preferred method of measurement
by menu, weigh your samples and
the balance does all the number crunching
for you. In the process, it automatically
takes into account all important factors that
influence the measurement. For example,
after you have entered the temperature,
the balance directly determines the density
of the selected immersion medium.
Results in black and white
A record of your results is printed out on
the interfaced data printer – if you wish, in
compliance with ISO/GLP.
The printout shows data on:
Temperature and density of the medium
causing buoyancy
Sample weight in air and in the medium
The volume and the density of the sample
If you weigh a substance with a density less
than that of the liquid causing buoyancy –
forget the extra work. The specially shaped
sieve lets you immerse your sample effortlessly
below the surface of the liquid.
And determination of the density of liquids
couldn’t be easier with our standardized glass
plummet.
