10. Wait for the "OK" symbol, then read the display. The weight is given in t units.
NOTE: X units and t units remain stored in the balance until they are replaced by
new units. Both X and t units may be directly converted to new units. Simply
follow the procedures given above converting from old X units to new X
units, or old t units to new t units.
MEASURING VOLUME WITH YOUR BALANCE
The two user-definable units may be useful for determination of other parameters by
weight. An example of this is volume determination by weight. This is generally far more
accurate than other volumetric measurement methods. For example, the density of
water at 20˚ C is 0.999823 g/ml. To measure the volume of water in a container using
X units, follow this procedure:
1. Place the container on the pan.
2. Press tare (or, if known, enter the tare weight).
3. Be certain that the balance is reading in grams.
4. Press the — key. This instructs the balance to divide by the density.
5. Enter the density of water .999823.
6. Press the conv key. The balance now displays milliliters of water.
7. Fill the container to the desired volume.
