Description
Baumé hydrometer 40-50:1/1 °Bé is a laboratory density instrument for determining liquid density on the Baumé scale across the 40 to 50 °Bé interval. The scale is graduated in 1/1 °Baumé steps, and the stated accuracy is ± 1 scale division, enabling clear visual interpretation within this range. Overall length is 220 mm, a practical format for use with standard hydrometer cylinders. Calibration refers to a reference temperature of 15 °C, which must be observed when evaluating readings. The instrument is supplied without an integrated thermometer, so temperature is controlled separately when required. Scale values are taken by bottom reading of the meniscus. This model from manufacturer Amarell is intended for routine Baumé density work in analytical and process laboratories. Offered as a single piece, it focuses measurement on the 40–50 °Bé window while the 1/1 °Baumé division keeps scale steps straightforward. Country of origin is Germany. The combination of defined range, stated accuracy, fixed length and bottom-reading design supports consistent Baumé determinations wherever this scale interval is specified.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

What is this article?
Hydrometer according to Baumé, 40-50:1/1°Bé, accuracy +/- 1 scale division, is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Amarell for laboratory use. It sits in Hydrometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A hydrometer floats in a liquid and the stem reading is the density or a related scale such as Brix. The liquid has to be at the temperature printed on the stem, or a correction is required. A chip on the stem changes the reading. One hydrometer does not cover every density.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
