Non-nuclear measurement
Use ultrasonic measurement without a radioactive source.
Review density, suspended solids and dissolved solids duties with hybrid ultrasonic measurement and PMA support.
The Rhosonics 9600 series uses hybrid ultrasonic sensor technology for application-specific slurry analysis. Depending on the model and calibration, the measurement can support density, total suspended solids or total dissolved solids duties.
The dedicated product information describes full-bore, flow-through wafer arrangements and the 9670 configuration with two opposed hybrid PEEK sensors for smaller pipelines. The selected model and fitting must match the process.
This family should be distinguished from SDM ECO, which uses acoustic impedance for slurry density. PMA can review whether the 9600 measurement scope or the SDM ECO density solution is the better fit for your application.

Use ultrasonic measurement without a radioactive source.
Choose the model and calibration around the density, TSS or TDS objective.
Review a full-bore arrangement, materials and pipe geometry for the slurry and installation.
Match the selected sensor and analyser to the process. PMA can confirm the current configuration and supply the relevant technical documents.
Hybrid ultrasonics; the available measurement parameters depend on the model and calibration.
Density, TSS and TDS are described by the dedicated product information. Confirm which outputs the proposed configuration supports.
Two opposed hybrid PEEK sensors are described for suitable smaller-pipeline applications.
Review solids and liquid composition, concentration range, temperature, air, settling and representative samples.
Assess the proposed density or solids objective against representative operating conditions.
Review dissolved composition and suspended material separately before selecting the calibration.
Investigate a defined duty with its particle loading, carrier liquid, abrasion and operating range.
Define the measurement objective and reference method before selecting the analyser. PMA can review the process conditions and the evidence needed to validate the proposed installation.
PMA has supported process measurement and analysis since 1971. We bring the instrument, the installation and the measurement objective together.
Share your process conditions with our team. We can help with product selection, application review, commissioning and ongoing support.
Tell us the model and your application so we can supply the appropriate specifications and technical documents.
Explore PMA’s dedicated ultrasoundmeter.co.uk product information and application library.
Review specialist fracturing-fluid guidance or prepare a PMA handover for a kraft liquor or lime-mud measurement point.
No. SDM ECO is a distinct slurry density meter using acoustic impedance. The 9600 is a hybrid ultrasonic analyser family with a model-specific measurement scope.
No. Confirm the model, sensors, process calibration and supported outputs. A product-family description is not a guarantee for every installation.
Use representative process states and paired samples. Record temperature, flow, air and composition changes so agreement can be assessed across the required operating range.
Choose by measurement objective, process medium and installation requirements.
Continuous non-nuclear slurry density measurement for mineral processing, quarries, dredging and tunnelling.
Measure two chemical concentrations in a defined liquid mixture using complementary process measurements.
