Automated Density Tester

Description

This Automated Density Tester from TA Instruments is a programmable system for determining the density of cured rubber and similar materials. It operates on the finite difference principle, also known as the buoyancy method. The instrument automates the measurement process, which involves weighing a sample in air and then in a fluid of known properties. It features active temperature monitoring of the immersion fluid, which enhances measurement accuracy by compensating for the fluid's density changes due to thermal variation. The system has a reported measuring range from less than 1.0 g/cm³ to 2.5 g/cm³. By automating the procedure, it reduces operator involvement and can contribute to more consistent and reliable density data in quality control or research environments.
