Gas Density
Gas density is an important parameter in the determination of the air to fuel ratio in the feed to a gas fired boiler. It ensures that efficient, clean combustion takes place providing for a clean burn with a minimum requirement in raw fuel. The Anton Paar combination of the DPRn density cell with the mPDS1000 evaluation unit and associated sampling system provides for a temperature compensated density to accurately determine the composition of the feed gas.
Due to the high influence of both temperature and pressure on a gases actual density the measurement of gas density requires a specialist technique in order to provice for an accurate result. As such Anton Paar has developed the gas density instrument which incorporates techniques to compensate for any changes to the gas sample pressure and temperature this providing for high accuracy results.
