PERFORMING AN ANALYSIS ----------------
1. Weigh the empty sampie cup and record the weight
2. Place sampie in the cup and dry it thoroughly in an oven.
3. After preparing the sampie. weigh the cup and sampie and record the weight. Subtract
the empty sampie cup weight from the sampie cup plus sampie weight to determine the
sampie weight Record the sampie weight.

ORGANIZATION OF THE MANUAL
This manual describes how 10 iosta1l, operate, and maintain the AccuPyc 1330 Pycnometer. The
manual is divided into six chapters.
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 6
Provides a general description and specifications
of the pycnometer.
Provides unpacking and iospection information, and iosta1lation iostructioos.
Provides iostructioos for performing an analysis.
Provides detailed operating iostructioos.
Provides troub1eshooting and maintenance procedures and error messages.
Provides information on ordering parts and accessories for the pycnometer.
Several appendices are also
inc1uded.
EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The AccuPyc 1330 Pycnometer is an easy-to-use, fully-automatic gas displacement pycnometer.
Analyses are initiated with a keystroke. Once an analysis is initiated, data are collected, calcula-
tions performed, and results displayed without further operator intervention. The pycnometer may
be operated in any
of four languages: English, German, Spanish, or French. The language used
may be changed by a simple keystroke sequence.
The AccuPyc 1330 Pycnometer's unique run precision feature increases the precision
of analysis
results by reporting data from five consecutive runs that are within a user-specified tolerance.
This feature allows early termination
of analyses, thereby decreasing the number of runs needed
for accurate results.
The AccuPyc 1330 Pycnometer, shown in the following illustration. contaios a keypad, a display
area, and an analysis chamber (referred to
as the cell chamber). The pycnometer is controlled by
commands entered through the keypad. The operational status
of the pycnometer can be continu-
ally monitored on the display. The optional printer prints out complete analysis and calibration
re-
sults. In addition. aserial port is provided for data transmission 10 other devices.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
In addition to analysis, there are two other automatie operations performed by the pyenometer:
calibration and transducer zero reset.
Analysis measures sampIe volume, from which density ean be derived automatically
if sampIe
weight has been entered. The unit comes pre-programmed with default conditions and ready to
perform analyses. It ean be easily reprogrammed to meet your speeifie needs. You ean modify
your own analyses by entering the following parameters: number
of purges, purge fill pressure,
number
of runs, run fill pressure, equilibration rate, and run precision. The run precision option
allows early termination
of the analysis if the last five runs are all within a user-specified toler-
anee. By modifying these parameters, you retain control over the two main sections
of the analy-
sis: purge and run.
A purge is used strietly for sampIe clean up and air and moisture removal from the ehamber's in-
side. It is aecomplished by c10sing off the pyenometer bloek and filling the cell chamber to the
designated purge
fill pressure. The ehambers are then vented to atmosphere, resulting in elimina-
tion
of water vapor or other contaminants. A run is used for eollecting the preeise, accurate data
used in repon caleulations.
Calibration
is used to determine the size of the eell and expansion chambers within the instru-
ment. After ealibration, the cell and expansion ehamber volumes are automatically stored
in the
set-up parameters.
The zero funetion is used
to caleulate a new zero pressure offset. It is measured when the system
is at atmospherie pressure and thermal equilibrium and is subtraeted from all subsequent pressure
readings in order
to obtain a true gauge pressure.
