What Is a Bottle-Type Pycnometer?
A Bottle-Type Pycnometer is laboratory equipment used for determining the physical density characteristics of aggregate materials.
The system is particularly suitable for particle density, specific gravity and related aggregate testing procedures. Liya Test offers five different capacities from 500 mL to 5000 mL, allowing laboratories to select a model according to sample size and testing requirements.
The product group is referenced to TS EN 1097-6.
Aggregate Particle Density Determination
Particle density is an important physical property used in aggregate testing and material evaluation.
During the test, the operator prepares the aggregate sample according to the applicable procedure and places it inside the pycnometer.
Water is then added under controlled conditions. The required mass measurements are taken and used with the known vessel volume and test calculations.
These measurements allow the laboratory to determine aggregate density-related values according to the selected method.
500 to 5000 mL Capacity Options
The Liya Test range includes five different capacities:
500 mL, 1000 mL, 2000 mL, 3000 mL and 5000 mL.
The LT-G0070 500 mL model provides a compact option for smaller aggregate samples.
The 1000 and 2000 mL models support medium-volume laboratory procedures.
For larger quantities, the LT-G0073 3000 mL and LT-G0074 5000 mL models provide increased working capacity.
This wide capacity range allows the laboratory to select a vessel more closely matched to the required sample quantity.
TS EN 1097-6 Standard
The product page references TS EN 1097-6.
This standard covers methods for determining the particle density and water absorption of aggregates.
Bottle-type pycnometers are associated with relevant density measurement procedures where a defined vessel and water displacement principle are used.
The exact sample preparation, soaking, weighing and calculation steps should always follow the current laboratory procedure.
Glass Filling Head
The product group also includes the LT-G0114 Glass Filling Head.
This accessory is designed for use with the Bottle-Type Pycnometer and supports controlled filling during laboratory preparation.
Its listed dimensions are 55 × 55 × 250 mm, and the approximate weight is 0.1 kg.
The filling head can help make liquid addition and vessel preparation more controlled during the test procedure.
Working Principle
The general test principle relies on measurements of mass and displaced liquid volume.
The operator prepares and weighs the aggregate sample according to the standard. The sample is then introduced into the pycnometer, and water is added as required.
Air trapped between aggregate particles can affect measurements, so the laboratory procedure should be followed carefully.
After the required conditioning and weighing steps, the measured values are used to calculate the relevant density result.
Choosing the Correct Capacity
The correct Bottle-Type Pycnometer should be selected according to:
- aggregate sample quantity
- maximum particle size
- laboratory procedure
- required vessel capacity
- weighing equipment capacity
- working and storage space
Using an appropriately sized vessel provides sufficient space for the aggregate and water while allowing the procedure to be completed more comfortably.
Laboratory Aggregate Applications
The Bottle-Type Pycnometer can support laboratory work involving:
- aggregate particle density
- specific gravity determination
- water absorption-related testing
- aggregate quality control
- construction material analysis
- road material laboratories
- concrete aggregate evaluation
The exact application should always follow the applicable standard or project specification.
