EXAMPLE 3

Battery electrolyte temperature reading is 100 degrees and the hydrometer specific

gravity reading is only 1.224. The electrolyte temperature is two (2) 10's above 80

degrees Fahrenheit. You must add two 4's or eight specific gravity units to the original

float reading to get a corrected specific gravity reading of 1.232 (See Figure 3-6).

(3) Perform steps in para. 3-8c (2)f thru k.
