The world's smallest ASTM D4052 high-precision meter brings unprecedented simplicity, reliability and accuracy to density measurement for crude and oil related applications

eralytics have recently launched the world’s most compact and lightweight ASTM D4042 and ISO 12185 compliant density meter. The highly robust ERADENS X provides density results with 5-digit precision and features a unique full range viscosity correction enables this device to provide unsurpassed accuracy over the wide temperature range of 0 – 100 °C.

The ERADENS X is protected by rugged corrosion-resistant aluminium housing and, with its revolutionary vertically aligned x-oscillation metal U-tube design, this instrument is tough and dependable; unaffected by shocks and vibrations it is ideal for use in difficult conditions such as inside mobile labs.

The vertical alignment of the U-tube minimises the likelihood of air bubbles getting trapped inside the density cell, and eralytics’ FillingProofTM verifies and confirms bubble-free filling. This instrument utilises the change in density as a function of applied pressure to detect even the smallest bubbles, therefore offering precise and reliable measurements even for non-transparent samples such as crude oil. This unique method has proven to be more reliable and less prone to error than conventional optical methods.            

ERADENS X also features state-of-the-art integrated industry PC and a large, colour touchscreen. Its unique sample introduction from the top makes a daily measurement routine highly effective, efficient and equally easy to operate for both right-handed and left-handed people.
