Temp.:
20 °C

Two test series with different weights were performed at ambient temperature (20.0 °C). Results are given in the following table. Due to fluctuation of the results two measurement series with 20 cycles were performed. The first 10 cycles each were used to establish an equilibrium. The results were measured for the cycles 11 to 20.
