Universal hydrometer Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-PLE-10395

The Universal Hydrometer is a laboratory measuring instrument used for checking the specific gravity or relative density of liquids. It is suitable for schools, colleges, universities, chemistry laboratories, physics laboratories, industrial quality-control labs, distributors, and institutional procurement teams.

Product Description

The Universal Hydrometer from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is intended for liquid-density and specific-gravity measurement in educational and laboratory environments. A hydrometer floats in a liquid, and the reading is taken where the liquid surface intersects the calibrated stem. The supplied product name confirms a universal hydrometer product, but the exact measuring range and graduation interval must be confirmed before final publication.

Universal hydrometers are commonly used with hydrometer jars or tall measuring cylinders for practical demonstrations and routine testing. They help students and laboratory users compare liquids by density, verify solution strength, and observe how buoyancy changes with liquid concentration. Exact scale range, subdivision, calibration temperature, material, length, tolerance, certificate, and packaging should be confirmed before catalogue listing or tender submission.

Key Features

• Specific gravity measurement: used to compare liquid density against water or a reference scale.
• Universal laboratory use: suitable for general classroom, chemistry, physics, and quality-control applications.
• Floating measurement principle: demonstrates buoyancy and density in a direct visual format.
• Compatible with hydrometer jars: can be used with a suitable hydrometer jar or tall cylinder where size is verified.
• Capacity not applicable: this is a density-measuring instrument, not a liquid-volume container.
• Educational value: useful for teaching density, specific gravity, buoyancy, and liquid-comparison experiments.
• Specification-dependent accuracy: range, divisions, calibration temperature, and certificate must be confirmed.

How to Use the Universal Hydrometer

1. Confirm that the hydrometer range is suitable for the liquid being tested.
2. Fill a clean hydrometer jar or tall cylinder with enough liquid for free floating.
3. Gently lower the hydrometer into the liquid without dropping it.
4. Make sure the hydrometer floats freely and does not touch the jar wall or base.
5. Allow air bubbles to clear from the stem and body.
6. Take the reading at eye level from the correct meniscus position.
7. Record the liquid temperature and apply correction only if required by the hydrometer specification.
8. Clean, dry, and store the hydrometer safely after use.

Safety note: Handle glass hydrometers carefully because the stem is fragile. Use suitable PPE when testing chemicals, acids, alkalis, oils, solvents, or unknown liquids. Do not use a cracked or leaking hydrometer.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean after each use with a liquid-compatible cleaning method.
• Dry fully before placing in a protective case or storage tube.
• Do not place heavy objects over the hydrometer stem.
• Store away from heat, impact, corrosive vapours, and direct sunlight.
• Recheck calibration where regulated or high-accuracy testing is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Universal Hydrometer used for?

A Universal Hydrometer is used to measure the specific gravity or relative density of liquids in laboratory, classroom, and quality-control applications.

What range does this hydrometer cover?

The measuring range is not confirmed. Add the range only after checking the product scale, datasheet, quotation, or supplied sample.

Does it include a hydrometer jar?

Hydrometer jar inclusion is not confirmed. List a hydrometer jar only if it is supplied with the final product configuration.

Is the hydrometer made of glass?

The material is not confirmed for this exact product. Add glass or borosilicate glass only after verifying the supplied specification.

What calibration temperature is used?

The calibration temperature is not confirmed. Add 20°C or any other calibration temperature only after checking the hydrometer scale or certificate.

Can this be used in school laboratories?

Yes. A universal hydrometer is suitable for supervised school and college density experiments when the liquid type, range, and safety procedure are appropriate.
