Hydrometer – Accurate Liquid Density Measurement Tool

A hydrometer is a precision scientific instrument used to measure the specific gravity (relative density) of liquids. It plays a vital role in industries and labs for identifying the concentration of solutions, especially in chemical, biological, brewing, dairy, and petroleum applications.

At Hafiz Scientific Corporation, we supply high-quality, lab-tested hydrometers that meet international standards for performance, calibration, and durability.

💡 How to Use a Hydrometer:

1. Pour the liquid into a clear, tall container (hydrometer jar).

2. Gently lower the hydrometer into the liquid.

3. Ensure it floats freely without touching the sides.

4. Take the reading at the liquid’s surface level (meniscus).

5. Compare the reading to reference charts if needed.

Note: Always correct for temperature if the liquid is not at 20°C.

🔄 Maintenance Tips:

• Rinse with distilled water after use.

• Avoid direct sunlight or heat exposure.

• Handle with care—it’s made of glass.

• Store upright in its case to prevent damage.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

❓What is a hydrometer used for?

It’s essential in applications like alcohol brewing, battery maintenance, milk testing, and chemical analysis.

❓How does a hydrometer work?

A hydrometer floats in the liquid, and the level it reaches corresponds to the liquid’s density. Heavier liquids make the hydrometer float higher, while lighter ones allow it to sink lower. The graduated scale gives a direct reading.

❓What types of hydrometers are available?

Common types include:

• Alcohol Hydrometer (Alcoholometer)

• Battery

• Lactometer

• Saltwater

• Saccharometer (for sugar solutions)

Each is tailored to a specific liquid or purpose.

❓Can I use one hydrometer for all liquids?

No, hydrometers are calibrated for specific ranges and liquids. For instance, a lactometer cannot accurately measure alcohol concentration. Always use the type designed for your specific application.

❓What is specific gravity in a hydrometer?

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a liquid to the density of water. A reading of 1.000 means the liquid has the same density as water. Hydrometers help detect impurities, concentration, or changes in solution strength.

❓Is temperature correction important?

Yes. Most hydrometers are calibrated at 20°C. If your liquid is hotter or colder, the reading can be skewed. Use correction tables or temperature-compensated hydrometers for accurate results.

❓How accurate are your hydrometers?

Our hydrometers are lab-certified and comply with ISO/ASTM standards. With proper use and calibration, they provide high-accuracy readings within ±0.001 specific gravity units.

❓Do you provide hydrometers in bulk for institutions or resellers?

Absolutely. We offer bulk order discounts for schools, colleges, research labs, and medical institutions. Contact us directly for quotations and custom packaging options.

❓Where can I buy a hydrometer in Pakistan?

You can order premium quality hydrometers from Hafiz Scientific Corporation. We deliver all over Pakistan and support both individual and bulk purchases.

❓Can I customize the range or branding of hydrometers?

Yes, we accept custom orders with specific scale ranges or branding for educational institutes and industrial applications. Minimum order quantities may apply.
