Key Features

With Ultrapyc’s rapid method selection and built-in accessories, users can transition from sample reception to measurement execution, and finally to result analysis on the touchscreen or within Anton Paar’s AP Connect lab execution system in less than three minutes. Ultrapyc can perform measurements independently in under a minute, making it ideal for monitoring the quality of your samples during the manufacturing process.

The process of conducting density measurements for solid pieces, powders, slurries, and semi-solids has reached unprecedented speed and accuracy.

Automate for Accuracy

The Ultrapyc series instruments automatically determine optimal settings and accurately control temperature, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and minimizing the risk of user error.

When combined with the TruLock lid, which ensures a stable and repeatable chamber volume, Ultrapyc gas pycnometers provide the utmost precision in the analysis of solid and semi-solid densities.

Measure any Sample with Confidence

Ultrapyc gas pycnometers manufactured by Anton Paar are designed to handle challenging samples more effectively and can accommodate a wider range of sample materials (such as pellets, slurries, and foams) than similar instruments.

  • The use of disposable cups allows for rapid and mess-free measurement of challenging substances like bitumen, thereby eliminating the need for cleaning.
  • The innovative PowderProtect feature ensures the safe analysis of powders and volatile slurries without risking instrument damage.
  • A diverse range of sample cells and integrated analysis methods further streamline workflows, establishing the Ultrapyc series as the preferred choice for intricate density measurements.

Work Fast, Save Time
