Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 (Product Code: SCI-455/013) is a density-measuring instrument used to determine the relative density of liquids heavier than water in teaching and testing laboratories. As chemistry and physics lab equipment, it suits salt and sugar solutions, glycerol–water mixtures and other liquids whose relative density (d) is above 1, where the reading tracks how concentrated a solution is. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

When a solid such as salt or sugar dissolves in water, the solution becomes denser, and the stronger the solution, the higher the reading on an aerometer for d greater than 1. This makes the instrument a quick way to compare solution strengths without evaporating or titrating samples: a class can make up salt solutions of increasing concentration, record each reading and plot density against concentration. Glycerol, strong acids and many syrups also fall in this range.
A dense liquid pushes a float instrument higher, so pour enough liquid into a tall cylinder for it to float clear of the bottom. Record the temperature with every reading and compare only readings taken at similar temperatures. After salt, sugar or acid solutions, rinse the instrument with distilled water and dry it, because dried residue can alter later readings; wear eye protection when working with corrosive liquids.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, supplies the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 as a sourced instrument from its base in Ambala, Haryana. As a laboratory instruments supplier in India, the company can combine it with glassware, chemicals and other apparatus on one quotation for schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers in India and international markets. Company details are on the ScienceLab profile.

What does “d greater than 1” mean?
For the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1, d is relative density, the ratio of a liquid's density to that of water. A value above 1 means the liquid is heavier than water, as with salt solutions, sugar syrups and glycerol.
Can it show how concentrated a solution is?
Yes. For a known solute, the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 reads higher as the solution gets stronger, so readings compared with a reference table indicate concentration. The conversion depends on the solute and the temperature of the sample.
What range and scale does it have?
The range, scale divisions and design of the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 are confirmed with the quotation. State the liquids and the highest density you need to measure through our contact page, and we will confirm a suitable instrument.
How should it be cleaned after use?
Rinse the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 in distilled water straight after salt, sugar or acid solutions and dry it before storage. Dried residue left on the instrument can change its weight and affect later readings.
Who supplies the aerometer?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 to schools, colleges, testing laboratories and dealers, and can quote it together with the matching aerometer for lighter liquids.
What should a quotation request include?
A quotation request for the Aerometer (densitometer) for liquids with d greater than 1 should give the quantity, the liquids to be tested, the density range and graduation you need, any calibration-certificate requirement to discuss, and the delivery destination.
