Description
Hydrometer 1,720–1,780 without thermometer is a laboratory density instrument for determining the density of liquids in the range 1,720 to 1,780 g/ml. The unit is approximately 300 mm long and carries a fine scale division of 0,001 g/ml, calibrated at a reference temperature of 20 °C. It is supplied without an integrated thermometer, so density can be read independently when temperature is controlled or measured separately. This glass hydrometer from manufacturer Geco-Gering is intended for routine immersion measurements in sample cylinders during quality control, process monitoring and analytical work with denser liquids. Clear graduation supports straightforward reading of specific gravity values across the stated interval. The instrument is offered as a single piece and suits chemical, industrial and research laboratories that require reliable density checks in the higher g/ml range without combined thermal sensing. Its standardised length and scale resolution make it a practical choice for repeated density determination protocols where a dedicated hydrometer for this narrow band is preferred.

Questions about Hydrometer 1,720 - 1,780 without thermometer
What is this article?
Hydrometer 1,720 - 1,780 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.
