 The model 591a Densimeter is a multipurpose instrument capable of quick, accurate
estimations of stallion sperm concentration and/or foal IgG antibody levels. Each Densimeter kit is pre-loaded with the calibrations necessary for the specified operation.
The 591a Densimeter can hold up to eight calibrations at a time and additional calibrations may be purchased and loaded as needed. Alternate species and other
unique calibrations are available for Bulls, Boars, Roosters, and Turkeys.
The 591a Densimeter is housed in a sturdy, lightweight plastic casing, measuring
9"x8"x4" with an approximate weight of 2 lbs. The front panel consists of a 20-button keypad and an illuminated liquid crystal display (LCD) panel. Located on the back is the
power switch, power receptacle and a RS232C Serial Communications Port which is used for connection to a personal computer.
The 591a Densimeter is sold as a kit which includes all equipment and supplies for the specified use. The 591a Densimeter kit includes a universal power supply (120V / 240V operation), 12 volt car adapter, instruction manual,
required peripheral equipment, alternate calibration loader CD, and a copy of ARS's publication "Techniques for Collection, Evaluation and Insemination of Stallion Semen, 3rd Edition".
Additional species calibrations, semen processes or alternate tests may be purchased separately from Animal Reproduction Systems and installed by the operator.
The 591a Densimeter features a temperature stabilized Specimen Compartment which increases accuracy in some applications and built-in Data Storage to store results. In addition, an automatic calibration is performed
before each test, eliminating the need for any additional calibration procedures.
