Buoyancy Balance
Product Code : JA-CT-9885
The Buoyancy Balance (SKU JA-CT-9885) is used to check the density of hardened concrete specimens such as cubes and cylinders quickly. It has a rigid support frame with a water tank on a platform; a mechanical lifting device raises the tank through the height of the frame so that the specimen, suspended below the balance, is immersed for weighing in water. The balance can also serve as a standard laboratory weighing system. It is supplied by JaincoLab for concrete laboratories.
Specifications
The unit has a rigid support frame, a water tank on a platform, a mechanical lifting device and a balance with suspension below it; balance capacity, readability and tank size are not listed in the product data and are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications of the buoyancy balance
Technicians weigh the specimen in air, raise the tank to weigh it immersed in water, and calculate its volume and density from the two readings.
- Density of hardened concrete cubes and cylinders
- Volume by water displacement
- Checking specimen density before compression tests
- General laboratory weighing
- Concrete technology practicals
