Description
Specific gravity hydrometer covering the range 0,600–0,800 sp gr with a scale division of 0,002 sp gr is a classic glass instrument for determining relative density of liquids in laboratory and process environments. The instrument is 300 mm long and is designed without an integrated thermometer, so temperature control is handled externally according to the stated reference conditions. Calibration reference temperature is 28,9/28,9 °C, corresponding to 84 °F, ensuring consistent density readings when samples are brought to the specified temperature. Scale reading is taken at the bottom of the meniscus, supporting clear, repeatable observation in transparent liquids. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Amarell, this hydrometer suits routine density checks on lighter fluids, quality control sampling, and educational or industrial density work where a dedicated low-range specific-gravity scale is required. Its straightforward construction focuses on the density scale alone, making it practical for benches that already maintain separate temperature measurement. Use in appropriate cylinders with sufficient liquid volume for free flotation and stable immersion of the stem.

Questions about Specific Gravity hydrometer, 0,600-0,800:0,002 sp gr, 300mm long, reference
What is this article?
Specific Gravity hydrometer, 0,600-0,800:0,002 sp gr, 300mm 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.
