Working Principle Powder Flow Meter PF 922

The Powder Flow Meter operates on the Scott Volumeter principle to measure apparent density:

1. Powder is poured through the top conical funnel
2. Material cascades over a series of inclined plates in the baffle box
3. The powder fills the standardized density cup below
4. Excess powder is removed with the specialized spatula without compacting the material
5. The filled cup is weighed, and bulk density is calculated in g/ml

This standardized procedure ensures that the loose condition of the powder is consistent for reliable and reproducible density measurements across different samples and operators.
