Density Determination
Purpose: You can determine the density and volume of liquid, solid or paste-like substances.
Combination options: Checkweighing, Timer Controlled Action, Totalizing, Statistics, SQmin Function,
DKD Measurement Uncertainty, Second Tare Memory or Individual Identifiers.
Prerequisites: In order to perform a density determination, you must have the Sartorius Density
Determination Kit YDK01MS or similar kit. The bases for calculation applied in
density determination are described in the user manual on the included CD-ROM.
There are four methods of density determination to choose from:
– Determining density of liquid (with glass plummet)
– Determining density based on buoyancy with the Sartorius Density Determination
Kit YDK01 (for solids)
– Determining density based on displacement (for solids)
– Determining density with a pycnometer (for liquid, pasty and powdered samples)

D
t Select the Determ. density of liquid method.
t Select the measurement conditions
Air density at 20 °C/68 °F: Select this option if analysis is performed under
standard laboratory conditions (20 °C / 68 °C room and sample temperature).
User input: Select this option if performing the measurement under different
conditions.
t Enter data as prompted.
