Description
Urinometer for smallest quantities 1,000-1,060 is a specialised density instrument intended for measuring the specific gravity of very small urine volumes. The scale range of 1,000–1,060 covers the physiologically relevant interval commonly encountered in clinical and research settings. Its compact design allows reliable readings when only limited sample is available, making it particularly useful in paediatric, veterinary or micro-sampling workflows. The instrument from manufacturer Hecht provides a traditional floating-spindle method that requires no power source and delivers immediate visual results. Supplied as a single unit, it integrates easily into existing laboratory glassware sets for urine analysis. The narrow measuring range focuses on the values most frequently observed, supporting rapid orientation during routine diagnostics. Clear scale markings facilitate straightforward interpretation once the urinometer has stabilised in the sample. This model belongs to miscellaneous laboratory materials and remains a practical option for laboratories that retain classical specific-gravity techniques for small-volume determinations alongside automated systems.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Urinometer, small model 1,000-1,060
What is this article?
Urinometer, small model 1,000-1,060 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht 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.
