ASTM 152h Hydrometer
The ASTM Soils Hydrometer 152H is a accurate soil hydrometer to measure the density of soil suspensions. Do not expose to extreme temperatures to maintain accuracy and function. The seamless, symmetrical stem and bulb ensures consistent readings and the one piece ballast attached to the bottom of the body eliminates errors from variable dilution. This hydrometer uses the ASTM 152 H scale which is graduated to read in grams per liter (g/L) of suspension, -5 to +60g/L in 1g/L divisions at 68°F (20°C).
11 inches (280mm) long, this ASTM Soils Hydrometer 152H is for field or laboratory use. Meets Test Methods AASHTO T88, ASTM C 775 and ASTM D 422. Use for soil analysis for construction, environmental studies or agricultural research. Trust its guaranteed calibration to make informed decisions based on accurate soil density measurements.
