Handheld Density Meter

Fully Automatic Handheld Density Meter for the Lab or the Field

A handheld density meter is a portable device designed to measure the density of liquids in various industries, such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, chemicals, and more. Densito and DensitoPro by METTLER TOLEDO are two handheld density meters that offer convenience for both laboratory use and on-the-go measurements. They provide clear, step-by-step instructions to make measuring and cleaning easy, ensuring quality control from incoming goods to final products.

FAQs

What is the advantage of a digital handheld density meter vs. a pycnometer or an aerometer?

Digital handheld density meters offer several advantages over traditional methods like pycnometers or aerometers. For instance, our digital handheld density meter is both fast and accurate, delivering results within seconds and with an accuracy of 0.001 g/cm3. This high speed and measurement accuracy cannot always be achieved with traditional methods like pycnometers or aerometers.

Additionally, the digital density meter’s built-in electric sampling pump allows controlled sampling and rinsing at the press of a button, avoiding user-dependent sampling workflows.

Furthermore, our digital density meter supports digital workflows, allowing for easy sample entry using a barcode reader or RFID reader. Quality control is also made even more efficient with automatic pass/fail indication, and data can be exported directly to a printer or PC software. This reduces the likelihood of transcription errors that can occur when using manual methods and saves you valuable time.

 

Can a digital handheld density meter measure in other units than density and specific gravity?

While a digital handheld density meter is primarily designed to measure density or specific gravity, our digital handheld density meter has built-in conversion tables for Ethanol (Alcohol), Brix, API, Baumé, H2SO4, Plato, Proof (US and IP), and user-defined concentration. This allows users to convert the density or specific gravity readings into other units of measurement.

 

How does a digital handheld density meter handle samples with different temperatures?

Our digital handheld density meter offers built-in temperature compensation which allows you to measure the sample at any temperature between 0°C and 50°C (14°F to 122°F) and calculate the density at the required temperature (e.g., 20°).

All the conversion tables built into the device include temperature compensation. For any other samples, a temperature compensation factor can be entered. If you do not have this information, it can be automatically determined by measuring the sample at two different temperatures.
