Abstract

The invention relates to a measuring probe for the acoustic determination of the specific gravity of a liquid. The probe includes a holder to which is attached at opposite ends thereof a ceramic piezoelectric transducer disc and a reflector disk. A reference element having a known acoustical impedance has one end thereof abutting the transducer disc and the other end thereof spaced from the reflector disc to form a sampling space therebetween.
