Applications:
- True density measurements of solids (e.g. fine powders, foams, etc).
- Determination of density at precise relative humidity and temperature values (with RH probe)
- Filter integrity tester - bubble point and pressure decay tests (with ancillary hardware)
- RH sensor calibrator (with saturated salt solutions)
- Determination of RH atmosphere over different mixtures, solutions
- Outgassing of samples using vacuum to a specified RH value or other conditions
- Remote control from PC for working with dangerous samples (under the hood)
Design highlights:
- Manual and Automatic operation (Windows based software)
- Progressive gas pressurization and depressurization (nano-powders,
no-elutriation)
- Dual reference chamber for the largest range of volume measurements
- Relative humidity and temperature measurements inside the sample chamber
- 24-bit data acquisition, high accuracy and excellent repeatability
- Pressure regulator and gauge (at the back panel of the instrument)
- Superior for foam density measurements (ASTM D6226-05)
- Variety of ancillary hardware for other applications, e.g. for filter integrity
testing
(largest pore sizes), RH probe calibrations,
- Small size and mass, portable
- Designed for easy customization to fulfill application specific requirements
- Sophisticated and interactive software for experiment design and control
(our software is compatible with 64-bit Windows® operating system)
- All experimental data are recorded and transferable (macro) to Excel.
- Volumetric density measurements using pressure range from vacuum to 50 psi (345 kPa)
and temperature range from sub ambient to 50C, with parallel relative humidity (RH) data
(0-100%)
- RH analysis in the pressure and temperature range, sorption and kinetic data from
multiple headspace extraction
- Designed especially for true density measurements of fine powders and foams
- Bubble Point and Pressure Decay Methods for characterization of filters /membranes
The most versatile gas (helium) pycnometers available; with many options, software compatible with 64-bit Windows® operating system, and for every budget.

- Determination of actual performance of gas pycnometer vs. quoted specifications... review
HumiPyc™ Model 1
- Especially designed for measurements of cement fineness where Blaine apparatus according to ASTM C 204 – 07 method is typically used.
- Software allows calculation of surface area of powders (packed-beds) using Carman-Kozeny equation.
- True density, porosity, and gas permeability specific surface area of powders can be measured by a single instrument and ... more on PSSA page and Permeametry page.
