Proof degree is one of the units for alcohol content, and there is US Proof and British Proof. Each of
them is different in conversion degree.
Proof (US)
: Measure in US Proof unit (100v/v%=200 US Proof)
Proof (IP)
: Measure in UK Proof unit (100v/v%=175 British Proof)
(12) Concentration measurement by setting desired concentration conversion formula
Set “Comp. Temp” and “
α
” in the previous (2), measurement of density with temperature
compensated or in the previous (4), measurement of specific gravity with temperature compensated.
Then, concentration can be calculated using the calculated “Comp D” or “SG”.

For example from the above data, a conversion formula can be obtained as follows.
Suppose take y for concentration and x for density, you can obtain y=283.2x–268.1 by the
approximate formula from regression line using commercially available spread sheet software.
Therefore, you input –2.681E+2 for coefficient ‘a’ and 2.832E+2 for coefficient ‘b’.
