Product Details
Made from optical quality polycarbonate material, these plain form hydrometers are designed for field work where breakage could be a concern. They are utilized for measuring sodium chloride saturation of salt brines in industries including food, fishing, and transportation, with models available to measure various levels of salt content from 0% to 100%. Key features include a durable and shatterproof construction, an easy-to-read black scale on a yellow back to help avoid eye fatigue, and a length of 300mm (12"). The hydrometers feature a lead-free ballast, are individually serialized, and are standardized to a temperature of 60°F (15°C). Each unit is hand inspected by our U.S. quality team and packaged with a multi-language (English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish) statement of accuracy indicating traceability to NIST. These hydrometers are made in the USA. Note that polycarbonate hydrometers are not recommended for use with petroleum-based liquids or other corrosives that could affect the plastic material. They should be stored in a clean, dry, safe place and protected from extreme temperatures.
