Density Meter Sample Loading Options




Title : Density Meter Sample Loading Options

Content : Innovative Sample Loading options for Density Meters from the Rudolph product line. Rudolph offers a wide assortment of sample loading options all innovative solutions designed to work with your specific application.




Title : Vertical Load

Content : • Sample loading is done with gravity and bubbles float to the top of the syringe. Suitable for left and right-handed operators as opposed to traditional manual horizontal injection. The syringe plunger is easier to push with all samples and there is more control over the syringe than with Horizontal Load. • Gives the ability to apply more pressure to the syringe when injecting viscous samples without harming operators. • Much easier cleaning. When a measurement is complete and the syringe is removed, gravity will force the sample down and into the waste jar. As opposed to the traditional horizontal load, if the waste tubing was bent, the sample would pour backwards and spill out on the table. • Preserves the nozzles and nozzle bodies much better since there will not be added pressure from pushing on them when loading a sample. All the pressure will be on the top plate, thus saving in future maintenance costs.




Title : LoadAssist®

Content : • Great option as there is two options for sample loading: by manual injection or having the PeriPump pull the syringe for you. • Ideal for pulling the rinse solutions automatically into the system thus making the rinsing part of the operation much easier. • Back pressure mode available for carbonated samples. • Has no added benefit to measurement performance over the Horizontal Load for an experienced user. However it benefits customers that have multiple inexperienced users as the PeriPump will automatically inject the sample the same way every time. • No change in instrument’s performance when compared to Horizontal Sample Loading or Vertical Sample Loading options • Most versatile option as it allows multiple ways to inject the sample: automatically through supplied needle, syringe, hard and flexible tubings




Title : Syringe Injection

Content : Samples can be easily loaded in the DDM series Density Meter by directly injecting your sample into the inlet port of the DDM. You can watch the sample progress through the U-Tube and monitor for bubbles. When you need a closer look, view at 2X, 6X or 10X magnification. When your measurement is complete, simply flush the U-Tube with your choice of solvent and use the convenient air tube to dry the U-Tube.

Title : Peristaltic Pump

Content : Combining a Peristaltic Pump with a Rudolph Density Meter makes sample loading and cleaning faster and more convenient. A Peristaltic Pump draws the sample into the Density Meter and could also load a Refractometer. The user drops a tube into the sample and starts the Peri Pump from the DDM display. The Peristaltic Pump draws the sample through one or two instruments and then measures. The measured sample is displaced to waste by the following sample.




Title : AutoFlex R837 Automation System

Content : The R837 AutoFlex Sampler Facilitates: • Customizable bottle size, Test Tube size, Boston Rounds:1oz, ½ oz, virtually any size • Customizable Rack configurations: heated and unheated on the same carousel • Automated sample introduction • Flexible Method Selection: Suction mode, Pressure mode, Rinse and Dry Duration • Programmable cleaning and drying • Automatic solvent and waste level detection • System Configuration minimal sample volume: 1.5 mL • A heated interface is available • Fast throughput. • Automation saves operator time and increases your lab’s efficiency • An urgent-sample interruption can be made at any time Operation is completely automatic. The sample is measured and the data recorded. Depending on how the system is configured the data may also be printed, saved as an Excel file or transferred to a LIMS system
