Density Scales / Scales for Density (with density determination kit)
PCE provides a lot of scales with a density determination kit. There are balances for pharmacies, Laboratory scales, analyzing scale etc. With the additional kid you can determine the density next to the weight. The density determination kit identifies the density of liquid and solid materials according to the buoyancy method. Basically the density determination kid is electric with a high precision. The density determination kit is suitable for measuring the density in plastic, rubber, ceramic, glass and other non-metallic materials. Our density determination kits are very fast and possess high accuracy. The determination of density occurs with a measure of a defined buoyancy corpus made of glass. The density results in the weight and volume of a sample. The weight is determined at the weighing setup. The volume is determined by the buoyancy corpus with the little sample in a liquid.

An easy possibility to measure density in a labor includes determining the mass and volume of a corpus. Then you have to calculate like in the following: density [kg/m³] is equal to the mass [kg] divided by the volume. Volume in liquids is measured according to the usual process of determining volume. The use of flasks, cylinders and Pasteur tubes are useable determine volume in liquids. The volume of solids can often calculate, because of their shape (for example a cube). Another possibility is to put the corpus into a jar which has water until the edge in it. Then you can measure the displaced water.

Density calculation with hydrostatic scales:

According to Archimedes Principle, an object completely immersed in a fluid (liquid or gas), displaces a volume of fluid which equals the volume of the object. The weight of that volume of displaced fluid is the buoyant force which affects the object. Besides, the principle states that the buoyant force, affecting the object, placed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
