Radiometric Density

Radiometric Density Measurement

Radiometric density measurement with a source container and Gammapilot transmitter provide reliable measurement values where other measuring principles cannot be used due to extreme process conditions or because of mechanical or construction conditions.  Gamma devices are made for non-contact density measurements in liquids and slurries.  Contact us to learn more about the broad range of radiometric devices to suit your application.

Radiometric measuring principle:

The gamma source, a caesium or cobalt isotope, emits gamma radiation which is attenuated as it passes through materials.  The measuring effect results from the change in absorption of radiation by the product to be measured which is caused by changes in density.  The measuring system consists of a source, a source container, and a compact transmitter as a receiver

Benefits:

• Non-contact measurement 
• For extreme measuring tasks when other principles cannot be used
• Low source activities due to very sensitive detectors
• Robust designs to suit any environment
