[NuSonics Mode! 86 SCM determines liquid concen-
tracon by measuring sound veloc The sound
velocity of any iui is unique! The relationship
tesween sound velocity liquid concentration and
temperate is diferent for every liguid. Once te
relationship is known, sound velocity canbe used to
‘monitor changes in igid concentration, often with
smoch greater resolution than canbe realized with
ter measuring instrument. Its this precision that
‘make the Model 86 SCM such edsirable process
‘monitor because itcan detect smal changes in
‘concentration that could otherwise be missed
‘Typically, he eslution ranges fom 0.005 to 05
