Usage Guidelines

To achieve accurate readings, ensure the liquid sample is at the standardized temperature of 60°F (15°C). Immerse the hydrometer gently into the liquid, allowing it to float freely without touching the container’s sides. Read the specific gravity value at the point where the liquid’s surface intersects the hydrometer’s scale.

By adhering to these guidelines, the VWR Scientific Specific Gravity Hydrometer 34629-918 provides reliable and precise measurements, supporting the stringent requirements of scientific and industrial applications.
