The device measures density by determining the mass of a tested material placed in a pycnometer of known volume at a specific temperature, with the density calculated by dividing the obtained weight by the liquid’s volume; the process involves filling the pycnometer and removing any excess fluid through an overflow hole.
Volume of pycnometer, cm3 | 100 or 50 |
Weight, g, no more | 100 |
Other volumes of pycnometer on request.
The method of measuring of the density consist of determining the mass of tested material, which is placed to the container (pycnometer) of known volume at a certain temperature. To calculate the density the obtained weight divided by volume of tested liquid.
Density cup (pycnometer) NOVOTEST P-1 is complies with ISO 2811-1.
Operation principle
The tested material is poured into pycnometer, after that the cap is covered with overflow hole. Surpluses of fluid, which are flowing through overflow hole carefully removed with a soft material (if necessary, moistened with solvent).
The density of paint or other material is calculated by formula:
ρ = (m2 — m0) / V, where
m0 – mass of empty pycnometer, g
m2 – mass of pycnometer with tested material, g
V – volume of pycnometer cm3.
