Ensuring optimal road salt brine concentration using DMA 35
Road maintenance teams struggle to apply the right amount of salt in winter. Too little causes icy roads and accidents; too much wastes resources and harms the environment. The DMA 35 helps ensure correct brine concentration on-site for safe and efficient winter service.
During winter, roads, railways, and walkways must be treated to prevent accidents caused by ice and snow.
While sand or gravel provide temporary traction, salts are preferred because they effectively lower the freezing point of water.
However, excessive salt use increases corrosion and environmental damage. Therefore, precise control of brine concentration is essential. Measuring the salt content quickly and reliably under varying temperature
conditions is a major challenge for road maintenance crews.
The portable density meter DMA 35 from Anton Paar provides an accurate and robust solution for determining brine concentration directly in the field.
