All hydrometers utilize Archimedes’ Principle, which states that an upward buoyant force is automatically exerted on a body that is immersed in a liquid. Whether partially or fully submerged, the force exerted by the liquid on the body equals the weight of liquid displaced by the body. The lower the density of the fluid, the deeper will be the hydrometer sink. The calibrated stem of the hydrometer cylinder gives a numerical reading of the density of the fluid.
Specialized hydrometers are available to measure the density of various liquids. For instance, a saccharometer measures the density of sugar in a liquid and a lactometer measures the density of milk.
Advancements and upgrades in the field of instrumentation engineering are expected to facilitate the growth of the global hydrometer market. Availability of specialized hydrometers is also expected to drive the global market. High presence of vendors offering high quality durable hydrometers is also expected to boost the growth of the global market. Companies and governments are making huge investments in the environmental fluid mechanics field. This factor is expected to be the primary driver for the global hydrometer market. High adoption rate of hydrometers in the agriculture industry for sieve analysis is also expected to enable steady growth of the global hydrometer market.
High presence of hydrometer vendors in China is the primary driver for the hydrometer market in the region. Huge investments are being made by companies in Southeast Asia to enhance their laboratory instrumentation skills, which in turn, drive the adoption rate of hydrometer. This factor is expected to boost the growth of the concerned market in the region during the forecast period.
Currently, the North American market holds the largest share of the global hydrometer market. The markets in the Middle East and Africa and Latin America are also expected to record strong growth rates during the forecast period owing to increased adoption of hydrometers for environmental research purposes.
Some of the major players operating in the hydrometer market include Dynalab Corporation; Cole-Parmer Instrument Company, LLC; APT Instruments; Dual Manufacturing Co., Inc.; Koehler Instrument Company, Inc.; Terriss Consolidated Industries, Inc.; and Density Analytics, LLC, among others.
