Description
Density hydrometer type 14 is a laboratory instrument for determining the density of liquids over the range 1,480 to 1,540 g/cm³ with a scale division of 0,001 g/cm³. The glass body is 160 mm long and is designed for use at a reference temperature of 20 °C. It is supplied without an integrated thermometer, and density values are read at the bottom of the meniscus, supporting clear, reproducible readings in routine analytical work.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.
This type 14 hydrometer is suited to quality control, process monitoring and general laboratory density checks where a narrow high-density window must be resolved in fine increments. The compact 160 mm format is convenient for standard cylinders and sample vessels. Manufactured by Amarell, the instrument follows the established type 14 scale layout for this density interval. Supplied as a single piece, it is intended for laboratories, pilot plants and industrial test areas that require straightforward density measurement without built-in temperature indication. Correct immersion, temperature equilibration to the stated reference and careful bottom reading help ensure consistent results across successive samples.

What is this article?
Density hydrometer, type 14, 1,480-1,540:0,001g/cm³, 160mm long, reference is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Amarell 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.
