5.4 Typical phases of density determinations
Density determinations include the following two phases.
•
•
Fill the measuring cell with sample and perform the measurement.
Prepare the measuring cell for the next sample.
5.4.1 Fill the measuring cell and measure the density
Because the measuring cell always contains residue from the previous sample or the cleaning solution, it is
important that you remove the residue using the new sample. This is only possible if the residue is soluble
in the new sample.
Handheld Density Meter
11
To achieve good results, make sure that the measuring cell contains only the sample you want to measure
and that there are no bubbles in the measuring cell.
You can use the sample pump or syringes to fill, drain and rinse the measuring cell. The sample pump is
used for samples with a viscosity up to 100 mPa*s. Syringes are typically used if the viscosity of the
samples is above 100 mPa*s.
You can find more information on working with the syringe in the Reference Manual.

Example: Density determination using the sample pump } Page 12
5.4.2 Prepare the measuring cell for the next sample
At the end of this phase, the residue in the measuring cell must be soluble in the next sample. The solubility
of the sample defines if you can drain the measuring cell or if you need to rinse it.
Drain
If the next sample dissolves the sample you just measured, you can drain the cell.
Rinse
If the next sample does not dissolve the sample you just measured, you have to rinse the measuring cell
with a cleaning solution. The cleaning solution must dissolve the sample that you just measured and the
next sample. When you rinse the measuring cell, the cleaning solution removes the residue from the original
sample.

6 Maintenance
In this chapter you find descriptions of the maintenance tasks you should perform on your density meter.
Any other maintenance tasks need to be performed by a service technician that has been qualified by
METTLER TOLEDO.
14
Handheld Density Meter
If you experience problems with your density meter, contact your authorized METTLER TOLEDO dealer or
service representative.
METTLER TOLEDO recommends that a preventive maintenance and calibration certification is done at least
once a year through your authorized METTLER TOLEDO dealer or service representative.

6.2 Clean the density meter
NOTICE
Danger of damage to the density meter due to inappropriate cleaning methods!
Inappropriate cleaning agents can damage the housing or other parts of the density meter. If
liquids enter the housing they can damage the density meter.
1 Make sure the cleaning agent is compatible with the material of the part you want to
clean.
2 Make sure that no liquid enters the interior of the density meter.
If you have questions about the compatibility of cleaning agents, contact your authorized METTLER TOLEDO
dealer or service representative.
u www.mt.com/contact
6.2.1 Clean the housing
METTLER TOLEDO recommends the following cleaning agents:
•
•
Water
Water with a mild detergent
Procedure
§ The density meter is shut down.
− Wipe the housing with a cloth moistened with the cleaning agent.
6.2.2 Clean the measuring cell
Because the measuring cell always contains residue from the last sample, there is a risk that the measuring
cell can be damaged by the sample. To prevent such damages, METTLER TOLEDO recommends that you
clean the measuring cell at the end of each sample series.
To clean the measuring cell, you need to rinse the measuring cell with a cleaning solution. The cleaning
solution must have the following properties.
Does not chemically interact with the material of the measuring cell.
Dissolves the sample that was just measured.
• Evaporates without leaving incrustations.

ð The measurement starts.
ð When the background of the measuring ribbon changes color, the measurement is finished.
ð The measured value is saved in the results.
4 Press the OK key.

1 Hold the filling tube over the waste beaker.
2 Press the OK key.
ð The sample pump starts and stops when the piston is in the lowermost position.
3 Clean the end of the filling tube with a clean tissue.
6.3.2 Measures if a test fails
1 Check if the correct standard has been used, and if needed repeat the test with the correct standard.
2 If the test continues to fail, clean the measuring cell with a cleaning solution that dissolves your samples
and dissolves in the standard.
3 Repeat the test.
4 If the test continues to fail, repeat the test twice and compare all three results.
5 If the results are not the same, clean the measuring cell and perform tests until the test passes or the
results of three consecutive tests are the same.
6 If the test continues to fail and the results of three consecutive tests are the same, restore the factory
adjustment data and repeat the test.
7 If the test continues to fail, perform an adjustment.

6.4 Replace the battery
The density meter works with a rechargeable 2400 mAh Li-Ion battery that you can order from METTLER
TOLEDO.
1 Press on the lower part (1) of the battery cover and
push the battery cover up.
2 Pull the upper part of the battery out of the battery
compartment and lift the battery out.

§ The measuring cell is drained.
1 Move the navigation joystick upwards and let go.
ð The sample pump starts and stops when the piston is in the uppermost position.
2 Shut down the density meter.
3 Press on the grip recesses (4) of the cover and lift the
lower part of the cover out of the housing.
4 Pull the top of the cover out of the housing.
5 Lift the piston (1) out of the guide system.
6 Pull the cylinder (2) up and out of its guide
system (3).

Install the sample pump
1 Insert the cylinder (3) of the sample pump in its guide
system (4).
2 Insert the piston (1) in its guide system (2).
3 To check if the sample pump works, move the
navigation joystick downwards and let go.
ð The sample pump starts and stops when the
piston is in the lowermost position.
4 Reinstall the cover of the sample pump.
6.6 Prepare the density meter for storage
The density meter can be stored at temperatures of -20…+50 °C (-4…+122 °F). But the lifespan of the
battery is reduced when it is stored at high temperatures.
