Thermo Scientific EX-410LS-515 ATEX SAA Sarasota Density
The EX-410LS-515 is a density converter from Thermo Scientific Sarasota range of liquid density measurement products. It is the electronics unit that works with a Sarasota density meter (a vibrating element density sensor installed in a pipeline) turning the meter raw signal into usable density measurements for process control and custody transfer. This version carries ATEX and SAA hazardous area certification markings so it is intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres such as oil and gas, petrochemical, and fuel terminal installations.
Key Features
- Density meter interface: takes the signal from a Sarasota density meter and converts it to density readings
- Four input channels: a listing for this unit describes four inputs including one for the density meter so the converter can also take supporting measurements (commonly temperature and pressure) used to correct density to reference conditions
- DC power: 12 to 28 VDC power terminal connections
- Hazardous-area certification: ATEX and SAA markings for use in classified areas
- Built for process use: designed to be installed near the pipeline in oil, gas, and chemical plants
- Part of a complete density system: pairs with the Sarasota density meter and its field wiring and flow computer integration
Typical Applications
- Online liquid density measurement in pipelines
- Custody transfer and fiscal metering of crude oil and refined products
- Fuel terminals, refineries, and petrochemical plants
- Process control where density is a key quality or blending parameter
- Mass flow calculation, when combined with a flow meter and flow computer
Why Choose It
Accurate density is essential for turning volumetric flow into mass and for custody transfer. A dedicated converter gives a stable certified interface between the density sensor and the control or metering system.
