4.
Measure the weight of the sample in the air.
Put a sample in a cage or on a pan, and measure the weight
of the sample in air. After the weight display is stable,
press the Target key to enter the weight. Then, []
blinks in the display for a few seconds and the measured
weight is displayed. When the weight is entered, [] is
displayed in the lower left of the display.
5.
Submerge only the hanging cage and set to “0”.
Before the measurement in water, submerge only the cage
and press the Zero/Tare key.
This is for removing any residual error due to the hanging
cage.
* Pressing the Print key interrupts the measurement.
6.
Measure the weight of the sample in water.
Put the sample on the hanging cage and submerge the entire
volume.
Be careful that the cage does not touch the bottom of the
container.
After the weight display is stable, press the Target key to
enter the weight.
7.
Displaying specific gravity
When the weight is saved, the resulting specific gravity will
be displayed.
Pressing the Function key toggles the display between the
specific gravity and volume of the sample.
8.
Return to weight display.
You press the Target key while a specific gravity value is
displayed.
The display returns to showing the sample’s normal weight.

Hints
☆
Measurements with smaller size samples may result in some variations in the measured specific gravity
values. In particular, any sample whose specific gravity is larger tends to show more variation.
Use as large a sample as possible for obtaining more stable measurements.
