1. Overview
The Density Meter LB 444 is designed for density measurements of liquids, suspensions,
pulps and bulk materials. Measurements can be carried out directly in a product line or in
a container.
The density measuring system LB 444 utilizes the radiometric measurement method, i.e.
the attenuation of Gamma radiation passing through the product being measured.
Typically, the measuring system is installed at the measurement location using appropri-
ate installation devices. If you have any questions, please contact the supplier.
Radiometric measuring systems utilize radioactive substances which are manufactured
in compliance with official regulations and which are protected by suitable shieldings.
When handled properly, any hazards to personnel due to radioactive substances can be
ruled out. As prescribed by law, these measuring facilities may be operated only by spe-
cifically licensed persons with sufficient expertise and training.
The hardware and software of the LB 444 system makes it easy to adapt the system to
rather different measuring geometries and measuring tasks. Therefore, the settings and
parameters of the measuring instrument have to be defined with care for the respective
measuring task when taking the system into operation. Important parameters may not
be changed later, in order not to compromise the reliable operation of the system. The
system should be taken into operation and settings changed only by persons who know
how to work with the instrument. Therefore, all users should read these operating in-
structions carefully. We recommend documenting all settings in a setup protocol.
Before starting any work, please read this operating manual carefully!
