SLURRY DENSITY METER
The Alia Instrument’s slurry density meter is designed to measure slurry bulk density over a very large density range. It is suitable for slurry flows in small to very large diameter piping, including those with high abrasivity and/or corrosive characteristics and/or high % solids, and/or large pipe size Through the density measurement, the technology can also detect sediment deposition.
The innovative Alia slurry density meter offers the following characteristics and their corresponding customer benefits:
• Full pipe, bulk density measurement
– Measures density across the complete pipe crosssection (not only a measurement at one point)
– No pressure loss and increased abrasion associated with a pipe ID reduction
• A non-nuclear alternative
– Elimination of the significant long term time/costs/activities associated with the use of radioisotopes (import, hazmat, licencing, training, badge monitoring, calibration, storage, disposal)
– No concerns about increasingly strict nuclear regulations or current/future prohibition
• Insensitivity to slurry type and composition
– Suitable for homogeneous, inhomogeneous, newtonian and non-newtonian slurries and pastes
– Insensitivity to solids size/shape, abrasiveness, hardness, density, conductivity (salinity), magnetism, radioactivity or consistency.
• Traceable factory wet calibration
– “Trust is good, traceability is better“ (Anton Paar)
– The densities of liquids used for factory calibrations are measured by a reference density meter which is calibrated according to ISO 17025 and verified using ISO 17034 liquid density standards traceable to the International System Of Units.
• Simple fit and forget installation, commissioning and verification
– No need for external commissioning engineers
– Bolt into the pipeline, connect power and signal wires, initiate offset compensation, measure,
• Fast, real-time measurement
– Immediate signal available for fast-acting control systems
Additional Products
Alia Instruments can also act as your one-stop supplier for production measurement. We can also provide you with:
● Skid-mounted density meters according to your specifications
● Multipoint wet calibrations at the factory with liquids of specific densities
● In cooperation with our partners, we can offer various types and brands of slurry flowmeters. The combination of the Alia slurry density meter and an electromagnetic flowmeter results in a high-accuracy slurry mass flow solution.
● For dredging we offer analogue cross-needle (yield) meters, up to a complete digital dredging production monitoring system for the dredging process.
Alia Instruments – Genuine Spare Parts
Alia Instruments provides customers with the peace of mind that their production measurement system will continuously contribute to their production maximization in the most reliable manner. Although the ADM is very robust with a simple design, Alia Instruments ensures the availability of spares in stock, ready to ship to anywhere in the world within 24 hours.
Installation and commissioning
The Alia Density Meter is easy to install and commission. However, if desired, Alia Instruments can provide an trained engineer for supervision and assistance during mechanical and electrical installation, and for testing the system. Typically, one day of installation and commissioning supervision is sufficient provided that qualified personnel for process access and testing is available. Users can also enable remote connection to the density meter from the factory.
