About the AccuPyc II

Gas pycnometry is recognized as one of the most reliable techniques for obtaining true, absolute, skeletal, and apparent volume and density. This technique is non-destructive as it uses the gas displacement method to measure volume. Inert gases, such as helium or nitrogen, are used as the displacement medium. Density calculations using the gas displacement method are much more accurate and reproducible than the traditional Archimedes water displacement method.

The AccuPyc II Pycnometers are fast, fully automatic pycnometers that provide high-speed, high-precision volume measurements and true density calculations on a wide variety of powders, solids, and slurries. The instrument completes most sample analyses in less than three minutes without sacrificing accuracy. After analyses are started with a few keystrokes, data are collected, calculations are performed, and results displayed. A minimal amount of operator attention is required. The pycnometer can be controlled by either:

  • Windows 10 interface. The operational status of the pycnometer can be continually monitored in the application. If the Windows interface is used, the keypad is disabled.
  • The keypad if not running the Windows interface. A separate keyboard and printer can be attached to the pycnometer using USB ports.
