DensityMeasurementFunction ⊑ DesignedFunction

DensityMeasurementProcess ⊑ PlannedProcess
All three definitions consistently identify density measurement as the core purpose. This is what makes a densitometer a densitometer rather than any other measuring instrument.
2 Genus DeterminationDeterminação do Gênero
Instrumentbfo:Object (BFO_0000030)
From the parent_candidates, 'MEASURING INSTRUMENT' is most specific. Since 'Instrument' (without 'measuring') appears in the enriched classes as the genus for controllers, detectors, indicators, etc., and measuring is a subset of instrument functionality, 'Instrument' is the appropriate genus. This follows the pattern of other measuring devices in the enriched list.
3 Differentia SpecificaDiferença Específica
∃bearerOf.DensityMeasurementFunction

An instrument that bears a density measurement function, distinguishing it from instruments that measure other physical properties.

The density measurement function is the minimal differentiating condition that distinguishes densitometers from all other instruments. This is both necessary (all densitometers must measure density) and sufficient (any instrument that measures density is by definition a densitometer).
4 Necessary PartsPartes Necessárias

No necessary parts recorded.

These are the minimal universal parts - every densitometer needs a sensing mechanism and output capability. Specific sensor types (photoelectric cell, gamma detector) are subtype-specific.

TransformationTransformação
transduction of material density property to information signal
Densitometers transform physical density information into measurable/transmittable data. The input is any material whose density needs measurement, output is density information.
Disjoint WithDisjunto com
flow meter pressure gauge temperature transmitter
C2: flow meter. C?: pressure gauge [kind_ambiguous]. C?: temperature transmitter [kind_ambiguous]. These instruments have incompatible measurement functions - an instrument cannot simultaneously measure density and flow rate, or density and pressure, as primary functions.
