Weighing
Secura, Quintix User Manual
7.9 Conversion
Purpose: Use this application to multiply the weight value by a user-defined factor. Division is
also possible if a factor of less than one is selected. The selected factor is saved to
protected memory.
Example: You want to calculate the weight per unit of a sheet of paper (DIN A4).
To do so, proceed as follows:
–
The weight per unit (e.g., 80 g/m
2
) can be determined by dividing the weight by
the surface.
–
The surface of a sheet of DIN A4 paper is: 0.210 + 0.297 = 0.06237 m
2
.
–
Division by 0.06237 is equal to multiplication by reciprocal value 1 / 0.06237,
i.e., 16.03335.
–
Set the factor to 16.03335 in the application.
