Hydrometer Heavy and Light
Original price was: $ 14.88.$ 14.71Current price is: $ 14.71.
Hydrometer Heavy and Light is a laboratory instrument designed to measure the relative density (specific gravity) of liquids. It consists of a sealed, calibrated glass tube with a weighted bulb at the bottom to ensure vertical floating. The “heavy” hydrometer is used for measuring denser liquids, while the “light” hydrometer is used for measuring less dense liquids. These instruments are essential in laboratories, industry, and education for determining concentration levels, purity, and solution characteristics across various fluid types. Each hydrometer is calibrated to float at a specific level based on the liquid’s density, making it a reliable tool for quick and accurate measurements.
