Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the specifications and features of the DDM Series of Automatic Density Meters, including models DDM 2909, DDM 2910, DDM 2911, and DDM 2911 PLUS, designed for high-accuracy applications.
Specifications: These density meters offer varying levels of accuracy, repeatability, and resolution. The highest model achieves a density accuracy of 0.00001 g/cm3 and temperature accuracy of 0.01 °C. They operate within a density range of 0 to 3 g/cm3 and a temperature range of 0 °C to 95 °C, controlled via Peltier technology.
Features: Key features include video scanning with magnification options (2x, 6x, 10x), automatic bubble detection, and a mechanical oscillating U-tube method for measurement. The system supports continuous, single, and multiple measurement modes and requires less than 1mL of sample volume.
Interface and Connectivity: The meters feature a 10.4-inch touch screen display and multiple connectivity options, including USB, RS232, and Ethernet ports. They support remote troubleshooting and software updates via the internet.
Compliance and Calibration: The devices comply with cGMP/GLP standards and support NIST traceable calibration. They offer extensive calibration adjustment and verification capabilities, with a history of adjustments available for review.
Data Management: The system includes 32 GB of internal memory and supports data export to external devices or networks. It is equipped with Windows Embedded OS, providing protection against malware.
Sample Handling Solutions: Various sample handling options are available, including peristaltic pump, syringe injection, and AutoFill™ systems, catering to different laboratory needs and sample types.
Applications: The DDM series is suitable for a wide range of applications, including ethanol proofing, density measurement of gases, and testing of various chemical solutions.
Conclusion: The DDM Series Density Meters by Rudolph Research Analytical offer high precision, versatile connectivity, and compliance with regulatory standards, making them suitable for highly regulated laboratory environments.
Introduction to Rudolph’s ECS Auto Sampler: The ECS Auto Sampler simplifies sample handling by allowing users to bring samples in containers with a volume of 3-4ml. The process is automated after the sample is introduced, with data recording options including printing, saving to Excel, or transferring to a LIMS system. Post-measurement, the system cleans itself using solvents and air drying, with customizable rinse and dry times.
Target Users: This system is ideal for laboratories seeking faster, semi-automatic sample loading and cleaning, especially those dealing with acids, bases, and caustic samples.
Rudolph Automation Systems: The DDM Series density meters can be paired with various automation systems like the R837 AutoFlex Sampler, which offers customizable sample handling and automated processes, enhancing productivity in high throughput labs.
AlcoTest-RI-J209 Alcohol Production Test Solution: This solution measures alcohol % by volume using specific gravity and refractive index, eliminating the need for pre-distillation. It is suitable for high-volume producers of alcopops, wine, and beer.
DDM 2911 PLUS Density Meter: This instrument is TTB approved for alcohol proof testing, offering high accuracy and compliance with various standards. It features precision temperature control and a user-friendly interface.
Conclusion: Rudolph Research Analytical provides advanced solutions for automated sample handling and measurement, catering to various industries including food, beverage, chemical, and pharmaceutical sectors.
