14. Application Functions

Application measurement functions are described in this chapter.

Only one of the functions in the menu group 4 (Refer to 7.3) ( to ) can be used at a time. When

one of the functions in menu group 4 is to be used with a weighing unit other than gram, select the

function from the gram-display first. Then, change to the other unit with the [UNIT] key. To release this

function, use the [POWER] key. For returning to the previous function, Last Menu Recall function is

convenient. There are some other combinations of functions that can be used together. Some func-

tions employ the value set in Zero Range setting (refer to 13.5).

14.1 Solid Specific Gravity Measurement

Solid specific gravity measurement refers to the measurement of the sample (solid) weight in the air

and in a liquid of known specific gravity (or density) and the calculation of the sample specific gravity

(or density).

The Td symbol is used to represent the solid specific gravity in this balance. The data output unit is DS.

1 Select menu item in advance.

2 Remove the below-weigh hook cap from the

bottom of the balance to expose the below-weigh

hook.

Note

Use of the optional SMK-101, or SMK-102 Specific Gravity Measure-

ment Kit (refer to A-3.) is recommended for efficient measurements.

When using the SMK-101 or SMK-102, refer to the instruction manual of

the kit. Follow the instruction below when a hanging pan and a tank are

prepared by the user.

Note

Enter the value of the specific gravity (or density (g/cm

)) of the liquid

(water, alcohol etc.) in which the sample is immersed. Refer to 7.4 for

numerical value input. To cancel the set-up, set the value to zero.
