Unit of Measure

General Applications

General Applications

Liquid, fatty, oily food and alcoholic beverage, max 150 proof and 75% alcohol content, suction and discharge.

This correction is to rectify the relationship between the unit proof and % alcohol content in the U.S. system. The alcohol content % = 0.5 x Proof. There are discrepancies between proof and % alcohol content as it differs from country to country. Calculations for the U.S. are shown here. EXAMPLE: Proof is a method of measuring the alcohol content of spirits. A spirits' product that has a 40% alcohol content by volume is 80 proof [40 multiplied by 2 = 80].
