KEM Density/Specific Gravity Meters

Density/Specific Gravity Meter
DA-860/850/840

The convenient, efficient and reliable DA-800 series is KEM’s (Kyoto Electronics Manufacturing Co., Ltd.) 6th generation line of density/specific gravity meters, inheriting technology developed with market needs firmly in mind.

The DA-800 series density meters measure the density/specific gravity of liquid samples by employing an oscillating sensor to determine resonant frequency. What’s more, the instruments can calculate sample concentration according to common industry standard formulas and tables.

The instruments have a built-in temperature stabilizing function, allowing you to measure density/specific gravity at your desired temperature.

Measurement can be conducted with as little as 1mL of sample (if injected manually), and in as fast as 10 seconds for a temperature-stabilized sample (when viscosity correction is disabled). All models in the DA-800 range come with viscosity correction functionality as standard.

DI support functions are included as standard

  • User authentication : Authentication by personal ID and password is possible.
  • Authority management: Possible to set authority such as editing restriction by personnel.
  • Audit trail: Possible to automatically record operating history.
  • Digital signature: Possible to perform electronic certification and digital signature by workflow.
  • Back up/Restore/Archive: Automatic back up function in every optional period.

The interface has been enhanced to support a variety of uses, such as a separate structure for the operation unit (tablet/PC) and measurement unit, wireless LAN connection, and connection of multiple units.

The instrument has a space-saving design and can be integrated with a semiautomatic cleaning unit (optional). Also included is a camera for viewing inside the measurement cell, improving reliability, convenience, and efficiency.

CSS Accredited Density Standard Liquid

Used to confirm the measurement accuracy of oscillation-type density/specific gravity meters in routine checks and calibrations.

KEM’s range of standards can be used for testing density in the range of 0.69***g/cm3 to 1.49***g/cm3(at 20°C).

KEM’s calibration and standard production laboratory is accredited as an ISO/IEC: 17025:2017 and ISO 17034:2016 compliant laboratory by International Accreditation Japan (IAJapan) as a producer of density reference standard materials under the Japan Calibration Service System (JCSS). The JCSS accreditation number for KEM’s calibration and standard production laboratory is 0115.

ISO is an international nongovernmental organization formed by standards bodies representing more than 160 countries and functions to provide a wide range of proprietary, industrial, and commercial standards. Compliance with ISO standards provides assurance of high quality and reliability.

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 specifies the “General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”, and ISO 17034:2016 specifies the “General requirements for the competence of reference material producers”.

Upon request, JCSS calibration certificates (recognized under mutual recognition arrangements (MRAs)), can be provided with KEM's density standards at extra cost.
