Anton Paar's DMA 35 EX Petrol Portable Density Meter is used for measuring petroleum samples in hazardous environments. One portable density meter replaces all the glass hydrometers in the workplace with the same accuracy expected from a lab instrument. The DMA 35 series uses only two milliliters of sample and saves the user time as there is no need to transport the sample to the lab. It is built to withstand the knocks and spills of outdoor use. An RFID interface for quick sample identification and a Bluetooth® interface for convenient data handling in the field are integral parts of the instrument.
Note: The special housing of DMA 35 EX Petrol is resistant to petroleum and numerous organic solvents. This meter fully complies with the ASTM D7777, ISO 15212-1, and IP 559 standards.

Applications
Petroleum products have a long way to go from the drill hole to their final destination. While they pass through the refinery, are transported via pipelines and tankers, stored in terminals, and run through blending procedures, the ATEX-certified DMA 35 Ex Petrol is ready for quick quality and type inspections throughout the whole process.
Typical samples include:
- Crude oil
- Diesel and gasoline fuels
- Lubricants
- Nitromethane
