Mounting Bracket - Takeuchi TB 175 Handbuch

(b)Measurement with hydrometer
When using a hydrometer, the measured specific gravity
must be corrected according to the temperature at the
time of measurement. The specific gravity of battery
electrolyte is defined with 20 °C as the standard. Since
the specific gravity increases or decreases by 0.0007
when the temperature varies by 1 °C, correct the value
according to the equation below.
S20 = St + 0.007(t-20)
