Sulfur Value is Percent:
When set to ON, the sulfur value is being entered as weight percent sulfur. If another
system is to be used, this must be turned OFF and the sulfur multiplier set accordingly.
Sulfur Multiplier:
Values entered by the user to be used for the sulfur correction are multiplied by this value
to get the product into units of milliequivalents. The default number (0.6238) requires that
the sulfur value be entered in weight percent.
Fuse Multiplier:
The fuse corrections represent the number of calories liberated by the burning fuse wire used
to ignite the sample. If another measurement is used, the correction factor must be entered
here. Press this key to access the Fuse Multiplier numeric dialog box and enter this multiplier
value.
Use Offset Correction (ISO):
The thermochemical calculations used for treatment of nitric acid and sulfuric acid corrections
in the ISO and B. S. methods require an offset correction to compensate for the back titration
that is made. To use these calculations, toggle this to ON and enter the appropriate value as
the offset value.
