Salt Brine Hydrometer - 0-100% NaCl by Saturation
Salinity hydrometer used to determine the % of Sodium Chloride in a solution. Also known as a brine hydrometer, or a salimeter is useful in water testing, food and beverage production and aqua culture.
Hydrometers used for testing NaCl solutions (a.k.a. salimeters, salometers salinometers) are typically available in two different styles, percent saturation (0 to 100%) and percent by weight (0 to 26.5%). Both hydrometers measure exactly the same range of overall concentration for NaCl solutions; the results are simply expressed in two different scale units.
The scale for NaCl percent by weight has a range of 0 to 26.5%. The high point of this range, 26.5% by weight, is the saturation point of NaCl within water. For instance, the highest concentration of dissolved NaCl that's possible in a 100g sample of brine is 26.5g of the total solution. On the other hand, the scale for NaCl percent saturation has a range of 0 to 100%. This measures the extent to which a NaCl solution is to reaching total saturation. Therefore, if a NaCl solution has reached 26.5% by weight it can be said that it's 100% saturated.
