D625 Users Manual INTRODUCTION We sincerely THANK YOU for your purchase of an ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES DENSITRAK® D625 Density Meter (Henceforth, D625). This manual is intended for the personnel responsible for the installation, operation and/or maintenance of the ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES D625 density meter.
TRANSPORTATION: NEVER transport the meter with hazardous fluids still entrapped in the meter or process connections. Please notify ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES of the process fluids utilized in the meter prior to returning to the factory for repair or service. A CLEANING FEE applies to ALL METERS returned to ANALYTICAL FLOW...

Enraf licensed the exclusive rights for manufacture and service of the DENSITRAK® meter to Analytical Flow Technologies in March 2010. Analytical Flow Technologies is owned and operated by Paul Heinritz, who has a long relationship with the DENSITRAK® Densitometer in which he ran the DENSITRAK® product line for Calibron Systems, Inc.
D625 Users Manual DENSITY EQUATIONS A simple definition for Density (for a homogeneous object) is the mass of the object divided by the volume of the object. Thus, common units of fluid density are grams per cubic centimeter, kilograms per cubic meter, and pounds per cubic foot. The hydrometer is probably the most common device used to measure fluid density in which it measures the volume displaced by an object of known mass.

D625 Users Manual BENEFITS AND FEATURES The ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES D625 density meter offers a multitude of design features which greatly benefit the customer while also maintaining an affordable price. BENEFITS FEATURES Small, compact design Small, compact design.
D625 Users Manual INSTALLATION Proper installation is crucial to the overall performance of the D625 Density Meter. The accuracy of the meter can be adversely affected by improper installation. To ensure meter accuracy it is imperative that the items listed below be considered prior to installation of the meter into the system.
All dimensions shown are in INCHES. Weight is approximately 16 pounds empty of fluids. ALL DIMENSIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE TOP-VIEW DIMENSIONS All dimensions shown are in INCHES. FIGURE 2: DENSITRAK D625 – TOP VIEW - DIMENSIONS FRONT-VIEW DIMENSIONS All dimensions shown are in INCHES.
INLET and OUTLET flow connections and the electrical cable gland and make the proper electrical connections. ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT: Each DENSITRAK D625 ships with a small tube of anti-seize lubricant. Ensure that all threaded connections are coated with a layer of anti-seize lubricant unless the threaded connection already utilizes Teflon tape.
D625 Users Manual D625 METER – ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Electrical connections to the D625 meter are very simple – you simply supply DC power (+24 V to the Electronics Package and connect the 4-20mA output (or Frequency output if no processor is selected) of the electronics package to your controls.

D625 Users Manual ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION NOTES GROUNDING: The meter should ALWAYS be grounded to an adequate earth ground POWER SUPPLY: Voltage drops due to wiring, barriers, etc. must be considered prior to sourcing a suitable power supply. WIRE & CABLE: Shielded cable is recommended for all field wiring between the meter and the signal processors.
D625 Users Manual METER – PROCESS FLOW INSTALLATION The ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES D625 meter can be mounted in a variety of methods, however the meter should be as near to the metering point as possible. Flow rate through the D625 meter is a critical component for performance – the flow rate should be high enough to achieve temperature stability –...

D625 Users Manual ANSI 15O#/300#/600# REMOTE MOUNT SCOOPED FLANGE INSTALLATION This installation is very popular in the OIL and GAS Pipeline Industry with large diameter pipes. Since the high flow rates inside the pipes causes excessive vibration it is recommended that the customer mount the meter off of the SCOOP FLANGE and connect via BRAIDED HOSE.
FIGURE 9: SCOOP FLANGE FLOW RATE VERSUS MAIN PIPELINE FLOW VELOCITY ANSI 15O#/300#/600# SCOOPED FLANGE INSTALLATION In cases where the MAIN PIPELINE does not cause excessive vibration, the Densitrak D625 can be mounted directly to the scoop flange as shown in Figure 10 below. Refer to FIGURE 9 to determine approximate flow rates through the meter.
11 below is a typical installation – however, ball valves should be employed at the INLET and OUTLET to allow easy REMOVAL for periodic maintenance. Pressure differential is defined as: = upstream pressure = downstream pressure FIGURE 11: TYPICAL DENSITRAK D625 “BYPASS INSTALLATION” SETUP...
D625 Users Manual OTHER INSTALLATION METHODS MOTOR-DRIVEN PUMP This installation incorporates a motor driven pump to draw fluid from the customer pipeline. This installation incorporates ball valves at the inlet and outlet of the densitometer to allow for easy meter maintenance and service. The pump is installed so that the fluid is “pushed” through the meter.
If the meter ever requires a return to the factory for recalibration or repair, the following procedure must be completed prior to shipment to ANALYTICAL FLOW TECHNOLOGIES. METER CLEANING PROCEDURE 1.
