The new generation of density,
sound velocity, and combined sensors
Half a century ago Anton Paar introduced the oscillating U-tube principle for high-accuracy density
measurements. Anton Paar still relies on this novel measuring principle for its new density sensor
generation of L-Dens. As well as the world-renowned L-Dens density sensors, Anton Paar provides
robust sound velocity sensors for fast determination of concentration and sound velocity. These
L-Sonic sensors are available as fork-type and tube-type versions to suit your installation and flow
conditions. The clever combination of both density and sound velocity sensors in the new L-Com
sensor make the concentration of 3-component mixtures measurable.

Anton Paar's new generation of sensors is available with the innovative process instrumentation
controller Pico 3000. Pico 3000 is a high-performance transmitter which is either installed in
the electronics housing of the sensor or in a separate housing for remote control. It provides
an optional simple user interface and the possibility to configure all sensor parameters with the
additional Pico 3000 Software directly at the sensor. The modular design with several configuration
possibilities enables easy integration into the PLC system. Data and diagnostics information plus an
error management results in higher plant availability.

Alongside the optical Carbo sensor – Carbo 520 Optical – Anton Paar offers
a second line of Carbo sensors, Carbo 510 and Carbo 2100 MVE. These
well-established sensors are based on Anton Paar’s volume-expansion impeller
method and include a special model which masters liquids with high nitrogen or
oxygen contents.

Anton Paar's famous inline viscometer based on a unique mechanical principle

allows you to monitor the rheological behavior of Newtonian and non-Newtonian
liquids during production.

Evaluation units, data acquisition software,
and accessories
Designed for continuous density and concentration measurement in industrial
processes, Anton Paar’s mPDS 5 evaluation units connect to all previous and
present Anton Paar sensors, such as the new sensor generation of L-Dens,
L-Sonic, L-Com, and the new generation of Smart Sensors such as Carbo 510,
Carbo 520 Optical, Oxy 510, L-Vis 510/520 Ex, and L-Rix 510/520.

The Davis 5 data acquisition software optionally provides you with additional ease
of operation and the possibility to monitor and control the production process
from any PC in the network. Inline Pump 520 supplies Anton Paar sensors with
a constant flow of sample from the main line, if required.
