Adjusting the measuring cell with a density standard
If a different density range is to be used, the measuring cell can be adjusted
using a density standard of your choice (e.g. toluene from the NIST, National
Institute of Standards and Technology) instead of distilled water.
Setting in the menu
- Calib. Mode:
- Enter the following density standard values into the menu:
