8. Measure Temperature:
•
Place Hydrometer Cylinder on a level table and using a
Thermometer measure the temperature of the solution in the
Hydrometer Cylinder immediately (
For Thermometer requirements refer to Form 1 or 2. The
•
measurement of the temperature collected during this step will
be known as the measured temperature of the solution and will
be required on the next step.

9. Depending on what Dry Acid Product is being used go to Form 1:
GranuFlo® Dry Acid Specific Gravities Table, page 43, or Form 2:
Citrasate DRY Specific Gravities Table, page .
In the table:
Locate the catalog number of the dry acid product being used.
•
Using the measured temperature from step 8, locate the value of the measured temperature
•
of the solution in the table.
Moving across and then down, identify the 'low' and 'high' specific gravity numbers.
•
These 'low' and 'high' numbers can be recorded in the appropriate box in the Batch
•
Production Record Form (GranuFlo® Form 1, page 32 or Citrasate DRY Form 2, page 34).
Record the measured temperature in the appropriate box in the Batch Production Record
•
Form as well.
10. Obtain the clean hydrometer and measure the specific gravity of the solution in the Hydrometer
Cylinder.
11. If the hydrometer or the surface of the solution is not clean, discard the contents of the hydrometer
cylinder into the Residual Solution Bucket. Clean the hydrometer and the hydrometer cylinder and
restart from Section 7.1, #6, page 18.
12. Do not take a reading if the hydrometer is touching the side of the hydrometer cylinder.
13. Document the Specific Gravity in the Batch Production Record Form in the "Measured Specific Gravity
Value" box.
14. If the actual Specific Gravity value that you measured falls within the 'low' and 'high' range on the
Batch Record Production Form, then the value is acceptable, the solution can be used and is ready for
TRANSFER Operation. Prior to Transfering the finished batch, the Batch Record Form must checked
for completeness and signed off by qualified reviewer. Place the solution in the Hydrometer Cylinder
into the Residual Solution Bucket. Rinse the hydrometer cylinder and the hydrometer before storing
equipment.To dispose the solution in the Residual Solution Bucket, See section 13.1: Residual Solution
Disposal or Disposition, page 41.
15. If the actual Specific Gravity value does not fall with in the 'low' and 'high' range, then the entire batch
must be disposed, See Section 13.2: Tank Solution Disposal, page 41.
16. Complete the documentation on the Batch Production Record and obtain reviewer's signature for the
batch prepared before transfer.
