The ρx in equation (3) represents the liquid density at measuring temperature. The density ρTB
at the reference temperature can be obtained by the following equation (4):

2.2 Main Components
2.2.1 Density Detector
Figure 2.2 is a schematic diagram of the density detector.
As shown in the figure, the density detector consists mainly of a vibrator assembly, a capacitance
pickup electrode, and an amplifier.

Figure 2.2 Schematic Diagram of Density Detector
The vibrator assembly consists of a sample path formed by connecting the ends of two thin
tubular vibrators whose upper ends are connected to a base. The connector incorporates
an RTD to measure the sample liquid temperature. The vibrator assembly also contains a
piezoelectric element to maintain vibration corresponding to the sample liquid density.
The capacitance pickup electrode installed between the two vibrating pipes detects the lateral
oscillation frequency of the vibrator.
