Three southern planetary nebulae (NGC 2818, He 2-130, and NGC 3132) have been observed with the IDS (Image Dessector Scanner) combined with the Boller and Chivens spectrograph mounted at the Cassegrain focus of the 1.52 m telescope of the ESO in Chile. The spectrograph dispersion was 60 A/mm in the spectral range 6170-7298 A. Spectra were obtained from an array of positions across each nebula along the E-W direction and/or N-S direction. In order to derive electron density, only the S II forbidden lines (6617 A-6731 A) are given here. The results are in agreement with a shell structure for the observed nebulae.
