Density measurement
A density and concentration measurement is possible on pipelines
and vessels. The accuracy of the measurement increases in propor-
tion to the radiated length (L) of medium. This is particularly important
in the case of products with low density or small tube diameters.

urement
1a Direct radiation - Horizontal mounting
1b Direct radiation - Vertical mouting or when the lead cover is used as protec-
tion against ambient radiation
2 Inclined radiation for extention of the radiated length (L)
3 Extension of the radiated length (L) by adding a tube angle piece as meas-
uring distance
4 Integrated lead cover as protection against ambient radiation - the instru-
ment is hence shielded laterally
