  • Page 53: Parts Counting

    12.1 Parts counting Before the balance can count parts, it must know the average part weight (i.e. reference). Proceed by putting on a certain number of the parts to be counted. The balance determines the total weight and divides it by the number of parts, the so- called reference quantity.
  • Page 54  If necessary place a weighing container, confirm the set reference piece number by pressing the PRINT button.   Place as many pieces to add-up as required by the set reference piece number.  Acknowledge using PRINT button and wait for stability display.

  • Page 58: Automatic Reference Optimization

    12.1.3 Automatic reference optimization In order to improve the counting exactness, the reference can be optimised by adding more pieces. At every reference optimisation, the reference weight is calculated anew. As the additional pieces increase the base for the calculation, the reference also becomes more exact.

  • Page 59: Density Determination (Hydrostatic Weighing)

    12.2 Density determination (Hydrostatic weighing) Density is the relationship of weight [g] : volume [cm ]. The weight is determined by weighing the sample in air. The volume results from the ascending force [g] of the sample dipped in a liquid. The density [g/cm ] of that liquid is known (principle of Archimedes).

  • Page 63: Determining Density Of Liquids

    12.2.2 Determining density of liquids For density determination of liquids, a sinker with known density is used (optionally available). The sinker is weighed first in air and then in the liquid whose density is to be determined. From the weight difference results the buoyancy from where the software calculates the density.
