What is BS 734-1 - Specification for hydrometers about?
BS 734-1 is an International Standard that discusses the technical specifications for hydrometers for use in milk .
BS 734-1 specifies requirements for glass hydrometers of constant mass, for use in milk having a surface tension of approximately 45 mN/m, which indicates density in grams per millilitre.
BS 734-1 specifies two sizes of hydrometer, with two scale ranges for each size. The larger hydrometers, designated No. 1, and No. 1A to distinguish between the scale ranges, correspond to the precision types. The smaller hydrometers, designated No. 2, and No. 2A to distinguish between the scale ranges, are more robust instruments intended to permit the density of smaller samples to be determined.
