Baume Hydrometer 0-50 graduated 1/1

Baum? hydrometers are based on the same principle as density meters and consist of a cylindrical instrument, similar to a thermometer but with one end having a larger diameter which is the base and where the float is located and at the other end is the graduation on the Baum? scale (?Be). It is used to measure concentrations of solutions. The measurement of 1 unit of a Baum? degree corresponds to 25 grams of sugar dissolved in 1 litre of distilled water.

The method of converting degrees Baum? for liquid densities greater than water is carried out by means of a formula.

The Baum? aerometer has been designed to measure the concentration or density of liquids denser than water based on assigning the value of 0?Be to pure water and the value of 15?Be to a 10% NaCl solution.
