What Is the Bulk Density Apparatus Used For?
The bulk density of a lime powder, its mass per unit volume including the voids between particles, depends on how loosely it is packed, so it is measured with a fixed way of filling. The lime is placed in the hopper above the 1 litre cylindrical container and released so that it falls the standard height into it. The surplus is struck off level, the container is weighed, and the mass of lime divided by 1 litre gives the bulk density. The standards listed are ASTM C110 and ASTM C191.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the number of apparatus required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Bulk Density Apparatus measure?
It finds the bulk density of lime: the sample falls from a standard height into a container of known volume, which is then weighed.
What are its parts?
The apparatus consists of a cylindrical container with a capacity of 1 litre, a hopper and a spring loaded yoke.
Why is the sample dropped from a standard height?
Bulk density changes with how tightly a powder is packed, so dropping it the same height each time fills the container in the same way and makes results comparable.
Which standards are listed for it?
The standards listed for the Bulk Density Apparatus, used on lime, are ASTM C191 and ASTM C110.
