A density hydrometer is a sealed Precision glass instrument used to measure the density or specific gravity (relative density) of liquids based on the principle of buoyancy.
Glass Build: Clear borosilicate Glass construction.
• Certified Accuracy: Supplied with calibration certificate.
• Model: M-50 – Standard industry-grade hydrometer
Range: 0.750–0.800 – Ideal for diesel and petrol density testing
Brand: PVG – Trusted worldwide for quality lab instruments.
Working of PVG DENSITY HYDROMETER i.eHow It works,
• Buoyancy: The hydrometer floats vertically in a liquid sample. It sinks deeper in lower-density liquids and floats higher in denser, heavy liquids.
• Scale Reading: A shot poised weighted bulb at the bottom keeps the device upright, and a narrow graduated stem at the top shows the measurement value (often read at the liquid’s
meniscus).
• Temperature Calibration: Most models are calibrated to a specific standard temperature—such as 15°C or 20°C—requiring temperature adjustments if the sample differs.
Common Types and Uses
• Petroleum and Fuels: Specific Density Hydrometers like the M-50 series, measure specific gravity for products such as petrol, diesel, kerosene, and lubricating oils.
• Automotive: Tools like the car Battery Hydrometers check the density of electrolyte fluid to test battery charge.
• Food, Beverage, and Lab Use: Used to measure sugar levels in winemaking/brewing, salinity in marine tanks, or milk purity
