Product Description

The API Hydrometer (SKU 32GA85, MPN GW5006) is an API Combined Form hydrometer with a range of 50/70 and scale divisions of 0.5. Made of glass with a 7 1/2 in overall height, it features an integrated +20 to 130ºF thermometer. This instrument is designed for measuring the specific gravity of petroleum products according to API standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the API Hydrometer GW5006 used for?

The API Hydrometer GW5006 measures the specific gravity of petroleum products per API standards. It is used in refineries, labs, and quality control for crude oil, gasoline, and diesel testing. The integrated +20 to 130ºF thermometer allows simultaneous temperature correction.

What are the specifications of the API Hydrometer GW5006?

The API Hydrometer GW5006 has a range of 50/70, scale divisions of 0.5, and an API Combined Form scale. It is made of glass with a 7 1/2 in overall height and includes a +20 to 130ºF thermometer. The manufacturer part number is GW5006.

Where to buy the API Hydrometer GW5006 worldwide?

3G Electric supplies the API Hydrometer GW5006 worldwide. As a global industrial equipment distributor since 1990, we handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your site. Contact us for availability and lead time.

How to select the right API hydrometer for petroleum testing?

Select an API hydrometer based on the expected specific gravity range of your petroleum product. The GW5006 covers 50/70 with 0.5 divisions, suitable for light to medium crude. Ensure the hydrometer includes a thermometer for temperature correction, as density varies with temperature.
