Introduction

The METTLER TOLEDO Densito 30P is a portable measuring instrument suited for
determining the density of liquids. The instrument uses the oscillating body method.
To fill the measuring cell the built-in sample pump or a syringe may be used.
The results are automatically calculated into one of the following units: density,
specific gravity, API degrees, Brix, % Alcohol, % H
or a user-defined unit. The value is then shown on the display.
For exact measurements, it is imperative to correct the temperature´s influence on
the density. Depending on the selected unit the Densito 30P carries out this result
correction automatically. For this task, the instrument uses either internally-stored
tables or one of the 10 temperature-compensation coefficients entered by the
user.
The results, along with the sample identification, temperature and temperature-
compensation coefficient can be saved and then, via the integrated infrared inter-
face be transferred to a computer or printed out with a printer.

Safety measures

Measures for your protection
- Do not work in an explosion-hazardous environment! The instru-
ment housing is not gastight. Otherwise, there is a risk of explo-
sion from sparks and/or risk of corrosion by gasses which can
seep in.
- Always hold the end of the sample tube over a waste container!
There is a risk of injury when emptying corrosive substances.
- Leave the syringe in the sample intake after injecting a sample!
Otherwise, the sample will run out of the measuring cell.
Measures for operational safety
- Never press on the measuring cell window! This can influence
the oscillation characteristics of the measuring cell.
- Do not clean the measuring cell with concentrated NaOH (caus-
tic soda) or HF (hydrogen fluoride)! Both substances chemically
corrode the measuring cell.
- Use batteries of the specified type only. Otherwise, proper opera-
tion cannot be guaranteed.
- Do not submerge the housing in liquid! The instrument is only
resistant to splashed water.
- Ensure that the following environmental conditions are met:
• no strong vibrations present
• not in direct sunlight
• no high humidity present
• no corrosive gasses present
• temperature between – 20 °C and 70 °C
• no strong electrical or magnetic fields present
