Description
API Gravity hydrometer according to ASTM, type S555HL-14 is a precision glass hydrometer for determining API gravity over the range 39 to +51 °API. The scale is divided in 0,1 °API steps with an accuracy of +/- 1 scale division. Overall length is 380 mm, and measurements are referenced to 60 °F. Design version L includes an integral thermometer from 0 to +150 °F with a 2 °F division and red or blue special filling; the instrument is configured for bottom reading. This ASTM-type unit from manufacturer Amarell is supplied as 1 pc for laboratory and industrial density work where API gravity is the required parameter. The combined gravity and temperature scales support simultaneous observation of sample temperature during immersion, which is useful when temperature-related evaluation accompanies the gravity reading. Clear graduation over the stated interval and the defined scale division facilitate routine checks, quality control, and process-related measurements. Construction and scale layout follow the manufacturer data for type S555HL-14, including the L design with bottom reading and the specified thermometer range and filling options.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about API Gravity Hydrometer according to ASTM, S555HL-14, 39+51:0,1°API, accuracy +/-
What is this article?
API Gravity Hydrometer according to ASTM, S555HL-14, 39+51:0,1°API, accuracy +/- is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Amarell for laboratory use. It sits in Hydrometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
