Description

Detailed Overview

This is a portable precision digital densitometer used in industrial radiography darkrooms. It accurately measures the optical density (blackness) of processed X-ray film. With a wide measurement range (typically 0.00 to 4.20 D), it is a reliable, user-friendly, instrument for film quality verification.


Instant and accurate measurement of film density, crucial for quality assurance in radiography.

  • This handheld electronic device measures the optical density of industrial X-ray film, ensuring that radiographs meet acceptance criteria for inspection quality, typically specified in standards like ASME or ISO.

Top Features & Benefits

  • Measurement range from 0.00 D to 4.20 D.
  • Easy-to-read 3 digit LCD display.
  • Zero button for quick Zeroing.
  • Automatic switch-off when not in use

Primary Uses & Functions

  • Used to accurately measure the optical density of processed industrial X-ray film. It functions as a Quality Control (QC) tool in the Radiographic Testing (RT) process.

FAQ:

What is the function of a densitometer in NDT?

A densitometer is used to measure the optical density (darkness) of an area on a processed industrial X-ray film, which is a critical measure for exposure quality and compliance with standards.

What does the “Digital” feature provide?

It means the measurement is displayed as a precise numerical value on a digital screen.
