January 31, 2011 - Anton Paar released the L-Dens 427 T Ex online density meter. The T Ex model is an explosion-proof version that accurately measures density and temperature. It automatically calculates temperature-corrected density, API gravity, and a variety of concentrations based on density. The explosion-proof rating makes it ideal for aggressive environments.
The Modbus, HART, and 4-20 mA outputs make connection to any flow computer or PLC extremely easy.The L-Dens 427 family of density sensors provides ultimate flexibility. Swagelok, DIN, and ANSI connections are all available as standard, with custom-made connections also possible. In addition to the communication options listed above, it is also possible to connect to an evaluation unit, or simply to use a frequency output to connect directly to a flow computer.Here are just a few of the possible applications:
- Online density measurement
- Online API measurement
- Online concentration measurement
- Mass flow rate determination in combination with a volumetric flow meter
- Product differentiation and/or phase separation
- Product blending
- Quality control
- Fiscal measurements / custody transfer
