Description
Specific gravity hydrometer for the range 0,800–1,000 sp gr with 0,002 sp gr scale division provides a practical tool for relative-density determination of liquids near and below the density of water. The glass instrument measures 300 mm in length and is supplied without a built-in thermometer, allowing laboratories to apply their own temperature control against the defined reference. Reference temperature is 28,9/28,9 °C, equivalent to 84 °F, so samples should be conditioned accordingly before reading. Observation is made at the bottom of the meniscus for consistent scale interpretation. This simple-quality model from manufacturer Amarell is offered as one piece and is suited to routine density screening, process checks, and general laboratory work where a mid-to-low specific-gravity window is needed. The dedicated scale supports clear flotation readings in a suitable hydrometer cylinder filled to permit free immersion. Pair with external thermometry when temperature-corrected density values are required for quality documentation or comparative measurements across batches.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Specific Gravity hydrometer, 0,800-1,000:0,002 sp gr, 300mm long, reference
What is this article?
Specific Gravity hydrometer, 0,800-1,000:0,002 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.
