Description
Hydrometer 1,660 – 1,720 without thermometer is a precision glass instrument for determining liquid density in the range 1,660 to 1,720 g/ml. It features a scale division of 0,001 g/ml and is referenced to 20 °C, enabling accurate laboratory readings for analytical and quality-control tasks. Approximately 300 mm in length, the hydrometer is supplied without an integrated thermometer, which is advantageous when temperature is monitored externally or held constant by the test setup. This model from manufacturer Geco-Gering supports standard immersion measurement practice in chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial environments. Clearly marked graduations facilitate reliable interpretation of density values across the stated interval. Supplied as a single piece, it is suited to routine bench work and comparative density series at elevated specific-gravity levels. Compact construction and fine resolution make it a practical tool wherever high-density liquids must be characterised without built-in temperature compensation.

Questions about Hydrometer 1,660 - 1,720 without thermometer
What is this article?
Hydrometer 1,660 - 1,720 without thermometer is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Geco-Gering 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.
