Provision of a Density and Sound Velocity Meter

National Oceanography Centre · Contract details notice on Find a Tender

Tender information last checkedLast checked 30 Sept 2026, 06:30.

Opportunity overview

To fully deliver our project, we are required to make very precise density and sound velocity measurements in a wide array of solutions with different ionic compositions. This will enable us to model the chemical composition and pH of seawater at a range of salinities, temperatures and pressure relevant to the ocean. The Anton paar DMA5001 was idenitified as a benchtop meter that met the requirements and specification of the project. The high accuracy is essential when measuring samples where small changes to density must be accurately measured.
