180 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
{of national standards Institutes (ISO member bodies). The work of
International Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees. Every
momber body interested in a subject for which a technical committos has boon sot
up has the right to be represented on that committee, International organizations,
‘overnmental and non-aovernmental. in liaison with ISO. also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated
to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
‘Standards by the ISO Counc!l,
International Standard 150650 was developed by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 48, Laboratory glassware and related apparatus.
It was submitted directly to the ISU Couneil, in accordance with clause 6.12.1 of
the Directives for the technical work of ISO. It cancels and replaces ISO

Relative density 60/60 °F hydrometers for general purposes
1 SCOPE AND FIELD OF APPLIGALION
This International Standard specifies requirements for five
basic series of glass hydrometers of constant mass which
Indicate relative density 60/60°F with reference to water
and comply with ISO 387.
NOTE — The use of a seal other than one based on density (nas
jer unit volume) is notin general recommended, but in view of its
Importance in trade bativean various counties, the sale batad on

3. DEFINITION
relative density 60/60°F of a liquid with reference to
water?) : The ratio
ddonsity of the liquid at 60°F

4 BASIS OF SCALE
The scale shall. indicat

relative density 60/60°F with
5 REFERENCE TEMPERATURE
‘The standard reference temporature for the hydrometers
shall be 60°F. When used tn a liquid at this temperature,
‘the hydrometer shall indicate the relative density of the
liquid ot 60 °F with reference to water at 60°F.

6 SURFACE TENSION
‘The adjustment shall be related to specific capillary
conditions as follows
6.1. When the nydrometer is slightly displaced trom tts
equilibrium position in a liquid, the stem passes through
the liquid surface without causing any apparent alteration
in the shape of the meniscus.
6.2 The hydrometer shall be adjusted with regard to
surface toneion. Exoopt whore tho highost procicion ie
‘required, one of the standard categories of surface tension
aiven in table 3, annex A, shall be used.
For hydromoters of the highest precision, intended for use
in porticular liquids (for example alcohol solutions), the
surface tension values appropriate to clean surfaces of these
liquids and to the netualindiestions of the hydrometer chal
bbe used [see 15 b) 3)].
7 REFERENCE LEVELS FOR ADJUSTMENT AND
READING
71 Hydrometers should preferably be adjusted for
readings taken at the level of the horizontal liquid surface.
If 2 hydromater so adjusted is used in an apanu liquid,
readings may be taken at the top of the meniscus where it
appears to meat the stom, but appropriate correction to the
level of the horizontal liquid surface shall then be made.
To avoid tho nooossity for moking sush corrections,
hydrometers intended for use in opaque liquids may
alternatively bo adjusted for readings taken at the top of
the meniscus where it appears to meet the stem. If a
hiydrometer js so adjusted, this shall be clearly indicated
con the scale [see 18 c).
NOTE — Appropriate corrections or given In nox C
7.2 Tho middle of the thickness of a eoala line shall bo
taken as its definitive position. 180 650-1977 (E)
8 IMMERSION
In order that the roadings of the hydrometer should be
Correct, the emergent stem shall be dry, except in the
immediate vicinity of the meniscus.
9 MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP
9.1 The bulb and the stem shall be mado of transparent
lass as (rev us possible from straln and visible deteots, and
shall have 9 coefficient of cubical thermal expansion of

9.2 The loading material shall be fixed in the bottom part
of the hydrometer. When heated in a horizontal position
for 1h at 80°C and subsequently cooled to room
‘temperature in thet position, the hydrometar shall meet the
requirements of 10.3.
If, however, a hydrometer is likely lo be used at a
‘temperature higher than 70 °C, this test shall be carried out
at a tomporature which le higher than 80°C. The material
shall not deteriorate in use.
