Description
Plastic Baumé hydrometer, 0–25:0,2 °Bé is a durable plastic instrument designed for density measurements expressed on the Baumé scale. It covers a measuring range from 0 to 25 °Bé in 0,2 °Bé increments with a tolerance of ±0,2 °Bé, providing clear and practical readings for liquid density control. The hydrometer measures 300 mm in total length with a body diameter of 20 mm and is referenced to 15 °C; it is calibratable for use in regulated or quality-assured workflows. Plastic construction offers improved resistance to mechanical shock relative to glass while retaining the free-floating behaviour essential for accurate Baumé determinations. Typical applications include monitoring of industrial solutions, process liquors and laboratory samples where the Baumé scale is preferred for concentration or density tracking. Supplied by manufacturer Schneider, this model supports routine density work without an integrated temperature sensor and delivers stable performance under the stated reference conditions. The combination of a fine scale, robust body and calibratable design makes it a practical choice for technicians requiring reliable Baumé readings in everyday laboratory or production settings.

Questions about Plastic hydrometer acc. to Baumé, 0-25:0.2 °Bé
What is this article?
Plastic hydrometer acc. to Baumé, 0-25:0.2 °Bé is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Schneider 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.
