Measurement procedures for specific gravity

Measure specific gravity with the following steps:

1. Preparing measurement equipment

2. Setting water temperature or the specific gravity of the liquid medium

3. Measuring the weight of the sample in the air

4. Correcting errors due to the cage

5. Measuring the weight of the sample in water

6. Displaying a specific gravity value

Preparing measurement equipment

Prepare the following equipment and sample:

Using smaller size samples may result in inaccurate measurements. Use as large a

sample as possible.

To measure specific gravity correctly, set the water temperature. Measure the in-container
water temperature beforehand.
