Description
Density hydrometer type M50-160 is a glass density measuring instrument covering the range 1,600 to 1,650 g/cm³ with a fine scale division of 0,001 g/cm³. Built in accordance with DIN 12791 and BS 718, it provides an accuracy of ±1 scale division and is intended for precise liquid density determination in laboratory and industrial settings. The hydrometer is 270 mm long and is referenced to 20 °C. It is supplied without a thermometer and is designed for lower-meniscus reading. The instrument is calibratable, supporting use in environments that require verification of measuring equipment. Offered as a single piece, this density hydrometer from manufacturer Amarell is suited to quality control, analytical chemistry and process monitoring whenever liquid density must be assessed within the stated interval. Standardised construction and a clearly defined measuring span help laboratories obtain reproducible density values when established immersion techniques are applied. The type M50-160 unit addresses applications involving denser liquids that fall inside the 1,600–1,650 g/cm³ window and complements other hydrometers in multi-range density programmes.
This article is part of Hydrometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

Questions about Density hydrometer, type M50-160, DIN 12791/BS 718, 1,600-1,650:0,001g/cm³,
What is this article?
Density hydrometer, type M50-160, DIN 12791/BS 718, 1,600-1,650:0,001g/cm³, 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.
