The device for determining the specific gravity (HYDRO) (ADG1000-ADG4000)

The device for measuring the density (specific gravity) of solids and liquids is a mechanical device that allows effective measurement of the mass of objects in the air and when immersed in liquid. With the help of analytical or laboratory scales from AXIS equipped with a special function "Hydro", mathematical calculations are performed and the measurement result is displayed on the balance indicator. A kit for measuring the specific gravity of solids and liquids is suitable for the following weighing ranges: ADG1000-ADG4000

The balance is equipped with an RS-232C interface, through which the report of the results of weight weighing and density calculation can be transferred to a computer or printed on a miniprinter (the mini printer is not included in the delivery of scales and the device "Hydro"). The report on the measurement of the sample density contains the current measurement number, the result of the sample weighing in the air, the result of weighing the immersed sample, the result of the density calculation.

Density characterizes the composition (quantitative proportions of parts), physical properties and condition of materials and products, so the need to measure density occurs when planning, carrying out and verifying many technical, production and commercial operations. In particular, the density value makes it possible to determine:
- Changes in the proportions of constituents of multicomponent materials (metal alloys, composite materials, compounds, etc.);
- Quality of casting about the presence of voids and "bubbles" of gas inclusions
- Degree of crystallization / polymerization of crystalline and plastic masses;
- The degree of porosity of materials (construction and thermal insulation materials, fibrous materials, etc.);
- Concentration of solutions;
- Quantitative mass / volume ratio before packaging of goods (products).

The accuracy of determining the density depends on the technical characteristics of the balance (the error of weighing), the mass and volume of the sample.
