The “Density” application

10.3.3 Selecting the auxiliary liquid
In this menu you can specify the auxiliary liquid you want to work with. This setting only applies to the density determination of
solid bodies! The following auxiliary liquids are available:
“Water”: The density of distilled water at temperatures from 10.0 °C to
30.0 °C is stored in the balance.
“Ethanol”: The density of ethanol at temperatures from 10.0 °C to 30.0 °C
is also stored in the balance.
“Other”: Any other auxiliary liquid whose density at the current tem-
perature must be known.
Factory setting: “Water” as auxiliary liquid is activated.
10.3.4 Activating and deactivating statistics
The balance can keep its own statistics for each method of density determination. With statistics activated, you are asked at the end of
each density determination whether you want to include the result in the statistics. You can activate or deactivate the statistics function
in this menu:
“On”: Statistics function activated.
“Off”: Statistics function deactivated.
Factory setting: Statistics function deactivated (“Off”).
Note: To use the statistics function you must also activate the two associated function
keys (section 10.3.6). You will find information about working with the statistics in sec-
tion 10.5.
10.3.5 Settings for calculating and displaying the result
In this menu you can specify the number of decimal places and the unit with which the result of the density determination should be
calculated, as well as whether the air buoyancy should be included in the calculation.
“No. of Dec. Points”: The result of the density determination can be displayed and
reported with from 1 to 5 decimal places.
“Compensation”: The result of the density determination can be corrected by
the correction factor for the force calibration and by the mean
density of air (setting “With”). If set to “Without”, no correction
is made. With the setting “With/Without” both the corrected
and the uncorrected result are displayed and reported.
“Density Unit”: Here you can define the unit which should be used for the
density determination: “g/cm³”, “kg/m³”, or “g/l” (grams per
liter).
Factory setting: Number of decimal places: “3”
Compensation: “With” (correction)
Unit of density: “g/cm³”
