Density of slurries and suspensions

If the solid content is too high, the friction and therefore the stress on the pipeline and pumps would drastically increase. On the other hand, if the amount of water is too high, more energy and water is needed to reach the target quantity transported. Since slurries and other mining suspensions are often very abrasive, corrosive, and viscous, many measuring methods are not able to reliably measure concentrations under these conditions or would not withstand them long enough to be economically viable.
Berthold provides for this application non-contacting and non-intrusive product density measurement solutions, which are therefore long-lasting and without future maintenance. The concentration, density and solid content of slurries and suspensions are measured continuously.
