Description
Gay-Lussac pycnometer 5 ml is a precision laboratory vessel intended for accurate density determination of liquids. Manufactured in accordance with ISO 3507, the instrument is adjusted and balanced to the third decimal place, delivering reliable volumetric performance for routine sample volumes. The 5 ml nominal capacity provides convenient handling while still conserving material, supporting density calculations through careful filling, temperature equilibration and weighing. Typical applications include chemical analysis, pharmaceutical formulation work, quality-control laboratories and academic research where reproducible specific-gravity data are required. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,014 kg, the pycnometer integrates easily into routine workflows. This Gay-Lussac model from manufacturer Witeg features the classic capillary-stopper design that helps minimise evaporation and trapped air during measurement. Laboratories value its consistent calibration for comparative studies and standardised methods. The compact form facilitates handling, cleaning and storage between uses, while the precise adjustment supports high-quality results across successive determinations of liquid density.
This article belongs on Density meters & pycnometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Pycnometer 5 ml Gay-Lussac
What is this article?
Pycnometer 5 ml Gay-Lussac is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Density meters & pycnometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. An oscillating density meter infers density from how a tube vibrates when it is filled. Both need temperature control. Air bubbles are the ordinary error.
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.
