Scott Volumeter Bulk Density Tester
The Scott Volumeter is described in USP <616> Method II and is designed for measuring the bulk density of fine powders. Bulk density may be described as the density of the powder ‘as poured’ into a measuring vessel. It includes the powder volume, inter-particle void volume and pore volume.
The Bulk and Tapped Densities of the powder are compared to give an indication of the type of interaction present between the various particles making up the powder mass and hence provide an index of powder flowability.

JV-2000 Tapped Density Tester
The JV-2000 is a two-station tap density tester that supports USP <616> Method II. It measures the tapped density of powders, granules, pellets, flakes and other bulk substances. The JV-2000 is particularly useful in powder flowability studies as well as determining the amount of settlement during transit to optimise pack sizes.

Alternatively, the JV-1000 is a single cylinder version with the same features as the JV-2000. An acoustic cabinet is also available to reduce the noise level to 58 dB.
