Specific Gravity Tester

Introduction

A specific gravity tester is used to determine the density ratio of liquids or semi-solid materials compared with water. It is widely applied in chemical production, petroleum testing, coating formulation, and material quality inspection. In laboratory and industrial environments, density is a key indicator for concentration control and product consistency. This instrument helps standardize measurement procedures and reduces errors caused by manual calculation or traditional weighing methods. It solves issues such as unstable measurement results, low repeatability, and operator-dependent variations. By providing a more structured testing approach, it supports quality assurance processes and ensures reliable evaluation of raw materials and finished products across different production stages.

Standards

Complies with the above standards, but is not limited to them.

Features

1. Temperature control supports repeatable, comparable results.

2. Syringe and filling accessories simplify sample handling.

3. Automatic calculations reduce manual conversion.

4. Small sample volume keeps reagent use low.

5. Clear display shows density, specific gravity or concentration.

FAQ

What are the main applications of the Specific Gravity Tester?

The Specific Gravity Tester is used to measure density, specific gravity or concentration of liquids or solids. It supports product identification, batch checks and quality control in petroleum, chemical, food, beverage and pharmaceutical work.

What standards does the Specific Gravity Tester comply with?

The instrument is designed with reference to applicable ISO, ASTM and GB/T density methods and IEC 61010 electrical safety. Temperature control and procedures should follow the standard. Compliance documentation can be provided on request.

What warranty comes with the Specific Gravity Tester?

The complete unit carries a 12-month warranty from delivery, covering the main body, core components and controller against manufacturing defects. Consumables and wearing parts such as filters, seals and probes are not covered. Damage from misuse, improper power or unauthorised repair is excluded, and extended warranty can be quoted.

Is the Specific Gravity Tester difficult to operate?

No advanced specialist skills are needed for standard operation, though correct sample handling and safety practice should be followed. We supply a detailed manual and start-up support. For multi-user or regulated sites, a short staff training session can be arranged.

What is the typical lead time for order delivery?

Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.

How often should the Specific Gravity Tester be calibrated?

Regular calibration keeps measurements within the stated accuracy; an annual check is typical, with shorter intervals for heavy or regulated use. Reference standards and procedures are described in the manual. We can quote calibration with certificates.

Where do we get replacement parts?

No proprietary consumable contract is required; standard parts are available from us and common laboratory suppliers. Our service team can supply a recommended parts list for the model. Most routine spares are held for quick delivery.

Can the Specific Gravity Tester be customised?

Customisation is supported for many installations, including tailored parameters, connections and accessories. Our team reviews the requirement and confirms feasibility and lead time in advance. We avoid committing to options that cannot be delivered reliably.

Is installation and commissioning included?

Standard installation is straightforward and supported by the manual and start-up documentation. Our technical team can guide staff remotely through checks and validation. On-site commissioning is available as a quoted service.

What should be avoided when using the Specific Gravity Tester?

Do not introduce bubbles or viscous deposits, use dirty cells or skip temperature equilibration. Clean and dry the measuring cell between samples. Follow the operating instructions.
