Description
Density hydrometer 1,500-1,600:0,001 is a precision glass areometer intended for measuring the density of liquids between 1,500 and 1,600 with a scale division of 0,001. The instrument is supplied without a thermometer, allowing the user to focus solely on accurate density determination at the meniscus. Packaged as one piece and weighing 0,056 kg net, it is convenient for bench-top use and storage with other laboratory glassware. In practice the hydrometer is gently lowered into a suitable volume of sample liquid until it reaches equilibrium flotation, after which the density is read directly from the graduated scale. This measuring window suits denser media such as concentrated solutions, process streams and selected industrial formulations. Produced by manufacturer Witeg, the hydrometer supports everyday quality control, research measurements and teaching exercises that rely on classical density determination. Clear scale divisions and stable floating characteristics promote repeatable readings under normal laboratory conditions. It integrates readily into analytical sequences where rapid, non-destructive assessment of liquid density is required within the stated range.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Density areometer 1,500-1,600:0,001
What is this article?
Density areometer 1,500-1,600:0,001 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Hydrometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A hydrometer floats in a liquid and the stem reading is the density or a related scale such as Brix. The liquid has to be at the temperature printed on the stem, or a correction is required. A chip on the stem changes the reading. One hydrometer does not cover every density.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
