Applied Sonics supplies both laboratory and on-line instruments to characterize fluids.  Applications range from the physical stability of dispersions to component concentrations in product pipelines.  These instruments are used in many industries including:

 Chemical 

Petroleum

Minerals/Fuels

Food & Pharmaceutical

Sonic Concentration Analyzer for laboratory use

The Sonic Concentration Analyzer speeds stability testing of suspensions and dispersions.  The non-destructive test quickly determines settling in a sample, eliminating visual/manual inspection.  It rapidly tests the concentration of non-settling materials, replacing time-consuming analyses. The instrument scans individual samples with no contact and no sample preparation.  The computer-based system takes ultrasonic measurements, then graphs the concentration profile. Changes in the profile indicate sample stability for quality assurance or shelf-life measurement. 

Process Composition Monitor for on-line process applications

 

The Process Composition Monitor is a sensitive, non-intrusive monitor of fluid composition. Sonic technology and precision electronics are combined in a clamp-on device that can monitor very small changes in the concentration of components in a liquid mixture or a solids-containing suspension.  The output of the PCM-100 is the percent concentration, calibrated for the process being measured.

 

Custom Ultrasonic Systems

Applied Sonics has developed a number of custom measurement systems that extend our sonic techniques for unique applications. For example, we recently developed custom ultrasonic sensors to measure slurry concentration inside mixing vessels.  We can provide custom solutions for a wide variety of fluids characterization needs.
