How to Use

  1. Prepare a soil suspension by mixing soil with a dispersing agent and distilled water.
  2. Pour the mixture into a sedimentation cylinder.
  3. Gently insert the hydrometer into the suspension.
  4. Record the hydrometer reading at specific time intervals.
  5. Use temperature correction if required.
  6. Expert Tip: Ensure no air bubbles stick to the hydrometer before taking readings for maximum accuracy.

Maintenance & Safety

  • Clean thoroughly after each use with distilled water.
  • Store in a padded or upright holder to avoid breakage.
  • Avoid direct sunlight or high heat.
  • Do not use with corrosive or acidic solutions.
  • Handle gently to maintain calibration integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is the Bouyoucos scale used for?
A: It measures the concentration of soil particles (in grams per liter) suspended in a liquid to determine soil texture.

Q2: Is this hydrometer calibrated?
A: Yes, it’s calibrated at 68°F (20°C) according to ASTM standards.

Q3: Can it be used for other liquids besides soil suspension?
A: It’s primarily designed for soil analysis, but can be used for similar sedimentation studies under expert supervision.
