About this test
Enter hydrometer readings, time and temperature.
How it's calculated
- D = √(30ηL/(980(Gs−1)t))
- % finer = (R − Cz + Ct)·a/Ws × 100
Results are calculated from the values you enter using standard formulas. Download the PDF to keep a record. For certified testing, design or construction, talk to our engineers.
