Thermo Scientific* DensityPRO-C nuclear density gauge uses an extremely small nuclear source size to reliably measure the density of liquids, slurries, solutions or emulsions. Rugged, precise and dependable gauge withstands shocks and vibration better than any other in its class, providing stable performance under the most demanding conditions.
 
Details:
Designed for the process industry, the Thermo Scientific DensityPRO-C uses an extremely small nuclear source size to reliably measure the density of liquids, slurries, solutions or emulsions. This rugged, precise and dependable gauge withstands high shock and vibration better than any other in its class, providing stable performance under the most demanding conditions.

  • Surface-mounted electronics
  • Compact size
  • Electronics endure high shock and vibration and have proven to withstand a minimum of 11 Gs at 40Hz over an extended timeframe with no adverse effects ensuring the dependability of the gauge over the long run; multiprocessor-based electronics ensure uninterrupted output during data entry
  • All user data is doubly stored in non-volatile memory with no battery back-up required

Certifications: C/US: Class I, Div 1, Groups A, B, C, Class II, Div 1, E, F, G, Class III, Div 1, T6; ATEX Hazardous Area: II 2 GD Ex d IIC (Tamb -40 to +60°C) T+80°C, T6 (Zone 1); European Compliance: CE
