E.2 Derived variables and calculated process variables
The concentration measurement application calculates a different set of process variables from each derived
variable. The process variables are then available for viewing or reporting.

Specific Gravity
The ratio of the density
of a process fluid at a
given temperature to
the density of water at
a given temperature
The two given
temperature conditions
do not need to be the
same.
Note
The two given
temperature conditions
do not need to be the
same.
